    • NEW! - Action Group on “GPS Weather and Space Weather Forecast”

This is a joint proposal for a new action group in Geosciences and Physical Sciences,  is a product of the 2006 cross-linkages workshop, and has the goal to promote GPS data exchange and to provide ionospheric imaging, facilitate data and technology exchange with the broader community.

The group will deliver greater understanding of the polar ionosphere and ionospheric processes.

Specifically, the objectives of this group have the following aims:

        •  Ionospheric imaging over Antarctica.
        • Exchange of data and expertise for the application of tomography to other fields of interest for both the communities (e.g. 3D water vapour reconstruction).
        • Exchange of technologies to install and manage remote GPS stations.
        • .Possibility to host instruments in the polar stations

The group will involve the following:

      • One meeting per year among the WG members
      • Joint publications on peer reviewed journals
      • Joint presentation at national and international conferences
      • Web site realization, maintenance and updating
