1. Extended Call for Applications for Multiple GEM Steering Committee Positions
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Jacob Bortnik (jbortnik at atmos.ucla.edu) and Paul Cassak (Paul.Cassak at mail.wvu.edu)

Please note that the deadline for applications for the GEM steering committee “at large” and Vice Chair positions, has been extended to Friday, June 21st, 2019.  This is due to the various workshops and proposal deadlines at around the same time which prevented a few candidates from applying and we hope that the extended deadline affords all interested candidates the opportunity to submit applications.  Please see the original announcement (with a revised deadline) below. By way of clarification, note that any regular (i.e., non-student) member of the GEM community is eligible for any role on the Steering Committee.

The success of the GEM program relies upon the dedicated service made by members of the steering committee (SC).  This year we have an opening for the GEM vice-chair (chair-elect) position and two openings on the GEM steering committee for regular “at-large” members.  We invite interested members of the community to apply for these positions or to nominate community members that would make excellent candidates.

For a list of the current steering committee members and related information, please see the following link on GEM website:

http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/gemwiki/index.php/Organization_and_People

The duties and responsibilities of the various SC positions are summarized in the GEM “best practices” document, which can be found here:

http://www-ssc.igpp.ucla.edu/gem/pdf/GEM_BestPractices_22Sep2017.pdf

The selection of these new positions will occur at the steering committee meeting which typically takes place the Sunday evening before the GEM Workshop.  In preparation for this meeting, the steering committee solicits applications, which should consist of a succinct one-page CV and a separate brief statement of interest (no more than half a page) describing the applicant’s interest in the position, any relevant experience, and the applicant’s approach to serving the GEM community and maintaining an interactive and workshop-style meeting.

Applications and nominations will be accepted until Friday, June 21st.  To submit an application, please send the requested documents to the current steering committee chair and chair-elect, Jacob Bortnik (jbortnik AT atmos.ucla.edu) and Paul Cassak (Paul.Cassak AT mail.wvu.edu). Send the name and contact information of nominations to the same addresses. Thank you for your support of GEM!

2. GEM 2019 Workshop: "The Tail Environment and Dynamics at Lunar Distances" Focus Group Sessions
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Chih-Ping Wang, Andrei Runov, David Sibeck, Slava Merkin, Yu Lin (cat at atmos.ucla.edu)

The Tail Environment and Dynamics Focus Group welcomes all presentations for the whole magnetotail from near-Earth to distant tail. 

Session 1: Joint session with Modeling Methods and Validation FG, Monday, 01:30-03:00 PM
The session is open to modeling studies in the magnetosphere and ionosphere relevant to the magnetotail, including model-model, data-data, and model-data comparisons.

We will also present a modeling challenge event, 06-11 UT of 2017-07-09, for understanding the global response of the tail, from near-Earth to mid-tail, to a gradual solar wind dynamic pressure increase, an IMF southward turning, and an IMF northward turning. This is an midnight conjunction event of Arase(ERG), GOES, Geotail, MMS, and ARTEMIS. The observations will be compared with the BATS-R-US, OpenGGCM, and LFM runs conducted on NASA CCMC. We will discuss the role of conductance.

Session 2: Thursday, 03:30-05:00 PM
The session is open to any topics on magnetotail, such as plasma entry and transport, tail structures, instabilities and waves, solar wind-magnetosphere coupling, and magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, interaction with Moon, etc.. We would like to solicit short (< 5 min) GEM-style presentations on observations or modelings.

Session 3: Friday, 10:30am-12:00 pm
This is the final year for Tail Environment FG, we will summarize the major findings from this FG. We will discuss how we will proceed to maintain the discussion platform for the magnetotail physics in GEM community, including a proposal for a new FG.

If you would like to present, please contact Chih-Ping Wang (cat at atmos.ucla.edu) 

More information on this FG can be found at http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/gemwiki/index.php/FG:_Tail_Environment_and_Dynamics_at_Lunar_Distances

3. GEM 2019 Workshop: Joint Session ULF Waves, Dayside Kinetics, IHMIC
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Tom Elsden (te55 at st-andrews.ac.uk)

The three focus groups UMEA, Dayside Kinetics and IHMIC will hold a joint session at GEM this year, in the Wednesday 1030am slot. The overall theme of this session is to consider the ULF wave response to dayside transients with different temporal/spatial scales and asymmetries. 

Please send a short abstract and title to Tom Elsden at te55 at st-andrews.ac.uk to request a talk in this session, outlining how your talk contributes to the science goals listed below. The format will be presentations of 3-4 slides, heavily aiming at sparking fruitful discussions. At the end, there will be around 20 minutes for open discussion.

Science Goals/Questions:

1) How are ULF wave properties affected by asymmetries in the upstream driver? What modelling/observational work is required to answer this?
2) Further, how then do the resulting ULF wave asymmetries impact the M-I system?
3) How does the 3D structure of dayside kinetic phenomena (e.g., spatial scale of magnetopause disturbance, location relative to magnetic equator) affect the ULF response in different hemispheres/LT sectors?
4) Can we use magnetospheric observations to determine the size (localized vs global) of a dayside transient? Is the response well-enough understood?
