Sixteenth EISCAT-3D User Meeting

                  EISCAT Scientific Association                    EISCAT Scientific Association                                           

16th EISCAT_3D User Meeting 2023/2


  The 16th E3D User Meeting (UM) will take place on November 30 and December 1, 2023 (week 48). The meeting will start on Thursday, Nov 30 after lunch. The meeting will end on Friday, Dec 1, lunch. The UM will be hybrid, i.e. physical attendance is at EISCAT/IRF Rymdcampus in Kiruna, and online participation via Zoom.

Preliminary subjects of presentations/discussions are first experiments, their data organization, profiles vs voxels, E3D Common Programmes, and Visualization.

We'll stick to the traditional scheme with short presentations followed by questions and discussion. Submissions of titles/short abstracts are welcome. The web pages of previous meetings, 15th E3D UM and 14th E3D UM and earlier, can give an impression for the arrangements and programme which include in some cases links to the presentation slides.

This 2nd announcement was last updated on November 27, 2023.

-------------------------

Registration

Registration is by filling this Google form. Optionally preliminary titles of presentatons/posters and other comments can be filled. 39 participants have already registered. The names and email addresses of registered persons will be used to provide the Zoom link and other updates about the meeting by email. They will be stored as long as E3D User meetings are regularly held, unless specific removals are requested.

Programme

Contributions on any E3D related subject can still be submitted. Especially encouraged are discussions of first experiments, their data organization, profiles vs voxels, E3D Common Programmes, and Visualization. An ad-hoc programme committee of volunteers might be asked to help if many submissions are received and some need to be postponed to a later user meeting.

Practical Information

The workshop will take place at the EISCAT HQ/IRF in Kiruna. The Kiruna rymdcampus can be reached by bus 501 of Länstrafiken Norrbotten.  Online participation is via the Zoom tool licensed by IRF, i.e. there is no exchange of personal data such as names and email addresses with third parties. We do not intend to record the meeting but will make presentation slides publicly available also for some time after the meeting, if the presenters agree.
