ISR at URSI AT-RASC 2024

Just after the biggest geo-effective storms of the current solar cycle hit the Earth on May 10 (aka, the Mother’s Day storm), BC/ISR scientists K. Groves, A. Hoskinson, D. Paznukhov, & C. Rino presented their ionospheric research at the 2024 URSI Atlantic Radio Science Conference. Rino, Paznukhov, & Groves (left to right in the photo) traveled to Spain for the conference, while Hoskinson presented remotely. Their research provides insights on how such storms affect the ionosphere and how that can disturb satellite communications and navigation systems. Groves is the current chair of URSI Commission G, Ionospheric Radio and Propagation and supported board meetings and tutorials for the conference.
