9th IAGA/ICMA/SCOSTEP Workshop on Vertical Coupling in the Atmosphere-Ionosphere System and the

6th ANtarctic Gravity Wave Instrument Network  Meeting

The deadline for Registration, Payment and Abstract Submission is May 3rd, 2024

Welcome to the VCAIS/ANGWIN 2024 Workshop! 

This year the 9th Vertical Coupling of the Atmosphere-Ionosphere System (VCAIS) Mtg and the 6th Antarctic Gravity Wave Instrument Network (ANWGIN) Mtg are combined for an exciting workshop dedicated to the details of processes coupling the atmosphere, ionosphere and magnetosphere. 

The meeting/workshop will take place in Fredericton, NB, Canada the first week of June 2024 (June 2 -7, 2024) and will provide an opportunity to build collaborations between these two active research communities. Its focus is on processes that couple the neutral atmosphere layers, the ionosphere and the magnetosphere, and their nature and consequences.  

This meeting aims to provide a venue for discussions and collaborations between scientists involved in studying the coupling and associated mechanisms linking the atmosphere, ionosphere and magnetosphere. Papers on the observations, data analysis, modelling and theory relevant to all aspects of this coupling are encouraged. While wave processes at all latitudes and heights are interesting, some sessions will have gravity wave processes in Polar Regions as their primary focus. In keeping with past meetings, the ambiance will be informal to encourage explorations of the science and collaborations. 

We look forward to seeing you in Fredericton and Canada!
