Geospace Research from the Polar Regions: Preparing for the Next International Polar Year (IPY)
Session ID#: 250423
Session Description:
The unique value of the polar regions for conducting geospace research has been recognized for decades. Research in these environments includes, but is not limited to, the study of auroras, induced electrical currents, the geomagnetic field, ionospheric electrodynamics, ion-neutral coupling, and atmospheric dynamics. These studies advance our understanding of the mechanisms that couple solar and interplanetary processes to Earth's environment. Accordingly, the polar regions host a wide array of sensors and facilities that provide essential data to enhance our knowledge of the polar regions and the broader geospace environment. The importance of polar research has been emphasized during past International Polar Years (IPY), which promote international collaboration focused on advancing scientific discovery and addressing pressing geophysical challenges in the polar regions. In preparation for the upcoming IPY 2032–2033, this session invites papers on the current status, challenges, and future outlook of observational and modeling work in polar research.
