Atmospheric dynamics Research InfraStructure in Europe (ARISE2)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
It has been robustly demonstrated that variations in the circulation of the middle atmosphere influence weather and climate throughout the troposphere all the way to the Earth’s surface. A key part of the coupling between the troposphere and stratosphere occurs through the propagation and breaking of planetary-scale Rossby waves and gravity waves. Limited observation of the middle atmosphere and t ...

Prediction of Geospace Radiation Environment and solar wind parameters (PROGRESS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
The smooth functioning of the European economy and the welfare of its citizens depends upon an ever-growing set of services and facilities that are reliant on space and ground based infrastructure. Examples include communications (radio, TV, mobile phones), navigation of aircraft and private transport via GPS, and service industries (e.g. banking). These services, however, can be adversely affec ...

Solar system plasma Turbulence: Observations, inteRmittency and Multifractals (STORM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
In this project we investigate solar system plasma turbulence from in-situ data gathered by automated platforms launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA. We investigate how the features of turbulence and intermittency vary with the solar activity and estimate the corresponding impact. We use electromagnetic field and plasma data provided by a core of three ESA spacecraft, Ulysses, Ve ...

Atmospheric dynamics InfraStructure in Europe (ARISE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
ARISE proposes to design a new infrastructure that integrates different station networks in order to provide a new “3D” image of the atmosphere from the ground to the mesosphere with unprecedented spatio-temporal resolution. Three existing networks are involved: 1) the International infrasound network developed for the verification of the Comprehensive nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), 2) the Networ ...

"Monitoring, Analyzing and Assessing Radiation Belt Loss and Energization" (MAARBLE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
"The MAARBLE (Monitoring, Analyzing and Assessing Radiation Belt Loss and Energization) project has two focussed and synergistic aims: to advance scientific research on radiation belt dynamics; and to enhance data exploitation of European space missions through combined use of European and US spacecraft measurements and ground-based observations.MAARBLE employs multi-spacecraft monitoring of the g ...

EISCAT_3D: A European three-dimensional imaging radar for atmospheric and geospace research (Preparatory Phase) (EISCAT_3D_2)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
EISCAT_3D is a next generation incoherent scatter radar system for high-latitude atmosphere and geospace studies that will be built in northern Fenno-Scandinavia. The facility will consist of multiple large phased-array antenna transmitters/receivers in three countries, comprising tens of thousands of individual antenna elements. The new radars will collect data from the upper stratosphere to the ...

European Cluster Assimilation Technolgy (ECLAT)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
"The European Cluster Assimilation Technology (ECLAT) programme will provide an unparalleled space plasma physics data repository and software tools archive for the Solar Terrestrial Physics community, building on the existing European Space Agency's Cluster Active Archive initiative. The Earth’s magnetosphere is the best observed space plasma environment in the universe, providing a wealth of in ...
