International LPMR Worskhop and EISCAT Symposium
20th
International EISCAT Symposium 2022
and
15th
International Workshop
on
Layered Phenomena in the Mesopause Region
The Layered Phenomena
in the Mesopause Region (LPMR) Workshop is
traditionally held biannually to advance our understanding
of ice and dust layers and related phenomena in the
Earth's mesosphere and lower thermosphere. The
International EISCAT Symposium, formerly the EISCAT
workshop, has, over the years, become a major conference on
incoherent scatter radar as well as on atmospheric and
ionospheric science explored by this measurement method. The
20th symposium is jointly with the 15th LPMR Workshop.
A central aim of
this combined meeting is to bring the EISCAT and LPMR
communities together to explore joint scientific interests,
observational techniques and model approaches. The meeting will
comprise both joint sessions and separate EISCAT and LPMR
sessions.
The meeting will take place on August 15-19, 2022.
Venue
The venue is the Sundbyholm castle
near the town of Eskilstuna in central Sweden.
The castle including its park and modern conference
accommodation is located on headland into the lake of Mälaren.
Wikipedia pages on Sundbyholm are in Swedish and German.
The commercial conference facilities are advertised here. Nearby
is also a camping and
a marina.
Public transport between Eskilstuna and Stockholm or its
airport Arlanda is available by train and bus, and it takes
about 2 to 2.5 hours. Time tables and details of possible
transport arrangements will be published later.

Scientific
Programme and Abstract Submission
We expect that the
meeting will start on Monday, August 15, morning, and end on
Friday, August 19, noon. Both joint as well as parallel LPMR and
EISCAT sessions are anticipated. Contributions to the EISCAT
symposium can be online, if participation in person would be
difficult because of travel restrictions and especially not
sustainable.
Abstract submission
is now closed.
A list of submitted abstracts (only name and title) can be
inspected here.
Please contact Stephan or Jörg if you cannot find your abstract
in this list, would like to request modifications, submit a late
contribution, or have other inquiries.

Accommodation
and Registration
Most
participants will lodge at the Sundbyholm conference facility,
and the fee covers accommodation (from Sunday afternoon until
Friday morning), meals and the conference. We plan to
offer a limited reduced fee for students, with lodging in shared
bed rooms. The different options are summarized here.
Registration
has opened. It will definitely close on June 17, and booking of
hotel rooms are final. Thereafter registration and booking of
accommodation might still be possible upon contacting us, but we
cannot guarantee availability.
Please send any comments and suggestions that you might have to
Stephan
Buchert, IRF, or Jörg
Gumbel, Department
of Meteorology, Stockholm University.
Radar
School
The radar school in
Uppsala orginally planned for 8-12 August has to be
postboned to a yet undeterminded later time Further
information to come. The preliminary fee is 0 kr, excl.
travel and accommodation. Please send any inquiries
to Thomas Ulich, SGO or Stephan
