June 2024 saw BC/ISR scientists attending several workshops on space physics research. D. Webb is team lead for coronal mass ejections (CMEs) on the NASA PUNCH mission (Polarimeter to UNify the Corona and Heliosphere), due to launch this coming spring. He attended the PUNCH 5 team workshop in Boulder, CO in June, working on a pre-launch paper on CMEs for the journal “Solar Physics”. R. Pradipta and K. Groves participated in the 2024 CEDAR workshop in San Diego. CEDAR (Coupling, Energetics, and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions) is an NSF program to investigate the space-atmosphere interaction region, including ionosphere-thermosphere predictability. K. Kraemer attended the 2024 ISWI workshop in Germany, presenting an overview of the SPARTA program, the NASA Space Weather Center of Excellence led by BC/ISR’s K. Groves (Space Weather Research and Technology Applications).
