MEETINGS & ANNOUNCEMENTS

Meetings

3-4 Février, 2025 - Journées Météo de l'Espace

Cité Internationale de l'Université de Toulouse

The aim of this meeting is to bring together the French SW community to discuss recent progress in space weather research. We will review recent developments in data and modelling services, inform the community about the SWING, Aurora-D and Vigil missions, gauge interest in the KASA L4 and ESA SWORD mission concepts, and present recent innovations in small platform development and instrumentation. The event supports the preparations for the ESA Ministerial Meeting in 2025 and the establishment of a National Space Weather Roadmap.

The event will take place on 3 and 4 February at the Cité Internationale - Université de Toulouse, in the centre of Toulouse. Monday 3 February is dedicated to the use of space assets for space weather, while Tuesday 4 February focuses more on French ground-based assets in support of space weather.

You can find the registration and program details here.

02/25 - ISWAT Meetings – Pre-Announcements

ISWAT2025 will bring you into the next big stage of the ISWAT Initiative, going beyond the new roadmap with all ideas welcome from the community going forward…

4-8/11/24 - Space Weather Week

The ESWW is the main annual event in the European Space Weather and Space Climate calendar. It is an international meeting organised annually within the European Region in collaboration with prominent members of the European space weather and Space Climate community. It began as a forum for the European Space Weather community and has since grown into an international event with global attendance. We look forward to welcoming you in Convento de São Francisco – Coimbra Cultura e Congressos.

11-15/09/2024 - Space Weather School

Space Weather School and the final PRESTO workshop (see below) at Mackenzie University, São Paulo.

09-12/09/24 - UK Space Weather & Space Environment Meeting II

>Welcome to the UK Space Weather & Space Environment Meeting II: Celebrating 10-years of 24/7 space-weather operational forecasting in the UK. This is the second UK-focussed meeting and falls a decade after the stand-up of the Met Office Space Weather Operations Centre (MOSWOC).

15/10/18 - COMET / OFRAME meeting

OFRAME and CNES (COMET) organized a day of exchanges and discussions between researchers and users of space weather, Toulouse.

A COMET ('Communities of Experts' meeting organised in partnership with CNES) focusing on the ionosphere and HF transmission. The purpose of this meeting is (1) to review the state of the art for tools and data products available to characterize the ionospheric environment and the impact of its perturbations on HF transmission, (2) to define the models and/or observations needed to better characterize HF transmission and (3) to consider how certain tools/models from basic research could meet end-users' needs.

Morning Program :

  • Pierre-Louis Blelly (IRAP) : L'ionosphère et la propagation HF
  • Philippe Yaya (CLS) : Réponse appel d'offre OACI
  • Joel Lemorton/Vincent Fabro (ONERA) : Modélisation transmission HF
  • Roland Fleury (IMT Bretagne) : Exemple d'outil opérationnel: SATIS
  • Pierre-Louis Blelly (IRAP) : Table ronde "Besoin actuels des services et produits"

Afternoon Program :

  • Sébastien Rougery (CNES) : Transmissions trans-ionosphériques sol-satellite
  • Isabelle Dahman (DGA) : La HF au service des armées
  • Norbert Suard (CNES) : Gestion de l'activité ionosphérique dans les systèmes SBAS
  • Aurélie Marchaudon (IRAP) : Les modèles ionosphériques en France
  • Pierre-Louis Blelly (IRAP) : Table ronde "Et demain, quels besoin ?"

All informations about OFRAME COMET are available on the official website.
