Meetings related to VarSITI: HEPPA Workshop


5th International HEPPA Workshop in conjunction with SPARC/SOLARIS-HEPPA
5-9 May 2014, Baden-Baden near Karlsruhe, Germany

web-address: http://www.imk-asf.kit.edu/english/1486.php

We are pleased to announce the
5th international HEPPA (High Energy Particle Precipitation in the Atmosphere) meeting,
which will again be held jointly with
SPARC/SOLARIS-HEPPA (Stratospheric Processes and their Role in Climate / Solar Influences for SPARC)

The workshop will focus on observational and modeling studies of the influences of solar radiation and energetic particle precipitation (EPP) on the atmosphere and climate. The meeting will last five full days, beginning Monday morning, 5 May 2014. Broad topics to be covered include the causes and phenomenology of solar radiation and energetic particle variability, mechanisms by which radiative and particle forcing affect atmospheric chemistry and dynamics, contributions of solar and EPP forcing to climate variability and space weather, and the current state of the art and outlook for relevant observations and models.

The format of the meeting will be as follows:

Monday, 5 May and Tuesday, 6 May 2014:
HEPPA Workshop with plenary sessions (invited tutorials and overview talks), as well as contributed presentations as posters. There will be ample time reserved for poster sessions.

Wednesday, 7 May 2014:
Joint HEPPA/SOLARIS plenary sessions with contributions from both communities, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of this workshop.

Thursday 8 May and Friday, 9 May 2014:
Parallel working group meetings of the SOLARIS and the HEPPA-MMI working groups; the HEPPA/SOLARIS workshop will be closed by a joint HEPPA/SOLARIS discussion and reporting session.
