2a- 2020 Space Weather Workshop

The 2020 Space Weather Workshop will be held April 20-24, in Boulder, Colorado. This meeting will bring together Federal agencies, the academic community, the private sector, and international partners to focus on the diverse impacts of space weather, on forecasting techniques, and on recent scientific advances in understanding and predicting conditions in the space environment.

The program will highlight impacts in several areas, including: aviation, human spaceflight and exploration, satellites, power grids, and other sectors affected by space weather. The conference will also include an update on the national and international space weather programs to mitigate and respond to space weather impacts on society. We welcome a broad range of participation, including representatives from research and development, operational organizations, policy development, and industries impacted by space weather.

The Space Weather Workshop is coordinated by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research and co-sponsored by the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, the NSF Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, and the NASA Heliophysics Division.

Please join us in Vail, CO from June 8 - 12, 2020 for the 2nd Eddy Cross Disciplinary Symposium. The aim of the Symposium is to bring a cross-disciplinary community (in discipline and in career experience) together to help shape the next decade of helio-physical research, including its implications for planetary and astrophysical objects.

The 2nd Eddy Symposium is where traditional disciplinary boundaries will be overcome and diversity of thought will be embraced uniting the scientific and operations communities and merging the solar, stellar, heliospheric,terrestrial, magnetospheric, and planetary sciences.

The Eddy Symposium will cover a broad range of topics including:

   - The Solar-Stellar Connection
   - Data Science and Machine-learning based Forecasts
   - New Technologies and Opportunities for the Sun, space and Solar System Studies
   - Novel Heliospheric Missions, including Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter

Agenda

Monday, June 8 - Wednesday, June 10

General session open to all attendees. Will include talks, discussions, posters, and more.

Thursday, June 11 - Friday, June 12

By invitation only.

For more information and to register please visit the 2nd Eddy Symposium Website <https://cpaess.ucar.edu/meetings/2019/symposium-2020<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cpaess.ucar.edu_meetings_2019_symposium-2D2020&d=DwMFaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=_8gyrEtFaCYLFD2hGTlnypBSqCvIgoDOEmdFSNG3iwRry54VbHgHnwL0-t2yR8js&m=KS2Q08ZTe2gbNSFh81CIP4Ly7Y89Qlv2oT-wZHckfC8&s=vr8_LYTYhGl9xjVeWroIUc7vEQQKHPtTueohZ7J_XCM&e=>> or contact Christina Bargas <cbargas at ucar.edu<mailto:cbargas at ucar.edu>> (UCAR/CPAESS).

Travel Support for Graduate and Postdoctoral Fellows
Approximately 15 graduate students and early postdoctoral fellows will be selected through a competitive process organized by the UCAR Cooperative Programs for the Advancement of Earth System Science. The Eddy Symposium lasts for five days, and each participant receives full travel support for registration fees, airline tickets, lodging and per diem costs.
Applications are due on Monday, March 16, 2020.

4- Call for New Members of the Executive Committee of the Living with a Star Program Analysis Group (LPAG)

Dear Colleague,

We are seeking well qualified candidates for the Executive Committee of the Living with a Star Program Analysis Group (LPAG), formerly the LWS TR&T Steering Committee. As with its predecessor, the LPAG performs a vital role by providing an opportunity for the Heliophysics Community to provide input and information to the LWS program. Examples of the activities that the LPAG is asked to address include:

* Articulation of the key scientific drivers for LWS scientific research including potential focused science topics (FSTs), strategic capabilities, cross-cutting research, and others;

* Evaluation of the expected capabilities of potential LWS missions for achieving the science goals of the program;

* Evaluation of LWS goals, objectives, investigations, and required measurements;

* Articulation of focus areas for targeted research and technology development; and

* Analysis of related activities such as ground-based observing, theory and modeling programs, laboratory heliophysics, suborbital investigations, data archiving, and community engagement.

The terms of reference for the LPAG is located on the LWS web site: (https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/images/pdf/LPAG_TOR_2017_Final_Signed.pdf).

As part of the LPAG process, four of the twelve members of the current Executive Committee are stepping down to allow for new membership. We are currently seeking four members from the Heliophysics community with a solid understanding of the scientific basis of Heliophysics system science. Highly qualified candidates from all career stages, including early career, will be considered. Membership in the LPAG is nominally three years. At present, the LPAG Executive Committee meets in person for three days twice a year. Participation in these meetings and during occasional telecons is expected for continued participation. In addition, members may participate in community engagement at various scientific meeting during the year either through soliciting input from the wider community or presenting status of LPAG activities. Additional information can be found on the LWS website at:

https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/lpag

To be a candidate for the LPAG Executive Committee, send you submission to the LWS program staff at the email addresses below. Please include in your submission a brief summary of the contributions you would make to the committee and your qualifications for doing so, as well as a single-page vitae. This submission must be limited to a two-page PDF file. Nominations will only be accepted for scientists who reside at a U.S. institution for the period of service. We will accept submissions until midnight Eastern Daylight Time on March 11, 2020. Please feel free to share this letter with anyone you think would be interested.
