1. System-Scale Data Analysis to Resolve Thermospheric Joule Heating: Announcement of Keynote Speaker and Reminder of Key Deadlines
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Robert Shore (robore at bas.ac.uk)

Dear colleagues,

We are happy to announce that Brian Anderson will be the keynote presenter at the 1-day workshop “System-Scale Data Analysis to Resolve Thermospheric Joule Heating”, which will be held at the British Antarctic Survey (Cambridge, UK) on Friday 27th April 2018.

Key deadlines:
Abstract submission closes on 19th March (in 2 weeks).
Registration closes on 23rd April (in 7 weeks).

Practical details:
Abstract submission is here: https://goo.gl/forms/HWxTUEmG6XNge0LV2.

Registration and full event details are here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/system-scale-data-analysis-to-resolve-thermospheric-joule-heating-tickets-42453674082.  Note that financial support is available for attending postgraduate students.

Event summary:
The aim of this workshop is to give a forum for discussing of the interdisciplinary utility of data-driven analytical techniques, and the best ways to harness the potential of the available large datasets which are driving advances in near-Earth space research.  The specific focus of the workshop is on the intrinsically interdisciplinary problem of resolving Joule heating – the transfer of energy from electrical currents in the ionosphere to the neutral particles of the upper atmosphere.

Conveners: Robert Shore, Anasuya Aruliah, John Coxon, Elizabeth Tindale.  For more information please contact Rob Shore at robore at bas.ac.uk.

Kind regards,
Rob (on behalf of the conveners)
