BC/ISR researchers took part in the 2024 National Radio Science Meeting in Boulder, helping to celebrate the 50th anniversary with the US National Committee for URSI, the International Union of Radio Science. Keith Groves chaired the special session “Beacon Satellite Science and Applications: In Memory of Patricia Doherty” – the late ISR Director. Several ISR scientists gave talks at the session, including Groves, Charlie Carrano, Ted Beach, Teddy Surco Espejo, and Rezy Pradipta. Chuck Rino chaired the “Ionospheric Radio and Propagation” session and presented a talk. Matt Proctor, Chris Bridgwood, and Dima Paznukhov were co-authors for a number of the talks, and Groves participated in the US Commission G Business Meeting as the Chair of the international commission. While in Boulder, they took the opportunity to visit NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center.
