[Shine-participants] First Announcement - IAU Symposium 335: Space Weather of the Heliosphere: Processes and Forecasts

[Claire Foullon]

Space weather is increasingly recognised as an international challenge 
faced by several communities. The ability to understand, monitor and 
forecast the space weather of the Earth and the heliosphere is of 
paramount importance for our high-technology society and for the current 
rapid developments in knowledge and exploration within our Solar System.

To discuss this important area of research we invite you to the IAU 
Symposium 335: Space Weather of the Heliosphere: Processes and 
Forecasts. The symposium will be held at the University of Exeter, UK, 
from 17 - 21 July 2017.

Key Topics of the Scientific Program are the following:
* Solar drivers and activity levels
* Solar wind and heliosphere
* Impact on terrestrial and planetary environments
* Long-term trends and predictions for space weather
* Challenges and strategy plans for Earth and the heliosphere
* Forecasting models
* Space weather monitoring, instrumentation, data and services

You can pre-register your interest in this exciting conference before 
registration formally opens in January 2017. The deadline for the 
submission of abstracts and for financial support will be 27 February 
2017. The deadline for early registration will be 20 April 2017.

The IAU Symposium will have dedicated Conference Proceedings. First 
details including the lists of provisional invited speakers and public 
lecturers, information about location, scientific excursions, social 
events, costs, and travel can be found on the symposium website.

A parallel Education Programme will also take place, and a limited 
number of rooms are available to use for breakout sessions. Please email 
the Local Organising Committee at iaus at exeter.ac.uk for information on 
these opportunities.

We look forward to welcoming you in Exeter next year!
