(1) Solar Influence on Climate; (2) Space Weather: Science and Applications; (3) Atmospheric Coupling Processes; (4) Space Climatology. The fifth day will be a review of scientific results arising from Pre-CAWSES programmes.
Impacts of Space Weather on the Magnetosphere Geomagnetic Storms and Their Effects Magnestosphere/Ionosphere Coupling in Space Weather (J. Foster) Geocoronal Imaging to Predict Space Weather Geomagnetic Storm Effects on Low-Latitudes (B. Fejer) Radar observations of Space Weather Disturbances Space Weather Effects on Navigation and Communication (Sa. Basu)
SCOSTEP Bureau Meetings are scheduled for 5 and 12 March while the General Meeting will be held on 11 March. Important changes in the SCOSTEP Secretariat such as the position of the Scientific Secretary position and the Director of the CAWSES Science Steering Group are to be discussed. National Representatives to SCOSTEP are particularly encouraged to register for STP-11 as well as to participate in the General Meeting. Voting members of the SCOSTEP General Council include: Bureau Members, Adherent (National) Representatives, and Scientific Discipline Representatives.
