[ursi-commission-g] Atmospheric Remote Sensing using Satellite Navigation Systems

[Cathryn Mitchell]

To all members of URSI-G.

At the last URSI General Assembly in Maastricht, a Joint Working Group of
Commission F and G was formed entitled "Atmospheric Remote Sensing using
Satellite Navigation Systems". A Special Symposium on this topic, which will
bring  together researchers from both the ionised and neutral atmosphere 
communities
is taking place in Matera, Italy from 13-15 October 2003.

Topics:
- Measurement of tropospheric refractivity, water vapour and ionospheric
total electron content using ground-based GNSS sensors
- GNSS radio occultation
- Novel radio occultation techniques
- Scintillation - ionospheric and tropospheric effects
- Imaging and data assimilation techniques

The call for papers is closing on 18 August, please see

for more information.

Looking forward to seeing  you in Matera,

best regards,


Bertram Arbesser-Rastburg and Cathryn Mitchell
