Posted through the URSI-Commission-G Mailing List: URSI GA Session G4: Assimilation and imaging of the ionosphere and plasmasphere

[Bust Gary]

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to draw your attention to the session G4 at the XXIX  
URSI General Assembly planned to be held on 7-16 August 2008 in  
Chicago, USA (http://www.ece.uic.edu/2008ursiga/ ).
The session is scheduled for the afternoon on 12 August (part a) and  
14 August (part b).
The deadline for submission is 31 January 2008.

Sincerely,

Gary S. Bust
Co-convener URSI Commission G4

G4a and b: Assimilation and imaging of the ionosphere and plasmasphere

In recent years ionospheric imaging (tomography and other techniques)  
and assimilative mapping have matured. These techniques are providing  
new scientific insights and are providing improvements to the  
operational capability of various systems.  Although still largely  
driven by ground based TEC sensors, there are also opportunities to  
use and assimilate new ground and space based data types. While this  
session will welcome a broad range of papers addressing techniques,  
validation, scientific results and operational benefits, the  
following topics are especially encouraged: 1) the ingestion of new  
data sources, 2) the validation and accuracy limitations of imaging  
and assimilation, 3) new scientific results obtained by use of  
imaging and assimilation, and 4) the estimation of underlying  
physical drivers or input drivers from imaging and assimilation.
