New GEM Focus Groups
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Mike Wiltberger (wiltbemj at ucar.edu)

After the presentation of seven new focus group (FG) topics covering the full range of research areas investigated by GEM the steering committee meet and deliberated these topics. Four of the proposals were selected to move forward with new FGs. These new groups are

1) ULF Wave Model, Effects, and Applications by Michael Hartinger, Kazue Takahashi and Brian Kress

2) Merged Modeling & Measurement of the Ionospheric Source of Magnetospheric Plasma by Vince Eccles, Shasha Zou and Barbara Giles

3) Modeling Methods and Validation by Katherine Garcia-Sage, Mike Liemohn, Lutz Rastaetter, and Rob Redmon

4) Dayside Kinetic Processes in Global Solar Wind-Magnetosphere Interaction by Heli Hietala, Xochitl Blanco-Cano, Gabor Toth, and Andrew Dimmock
