Hello,
Please find attached the minutes from the Software Meeting held in December in
Tromsø. There are gaps, particularly when I was speaking, so any additions or
corrections are appreciated.

Dear colleagues
I am very pleased to announce that there is a Special Issue on the joint 20th International EISCAT Symposium and 15th International Workshop on Layered Phenomena in the Mesopause Region.
Although focused on the joint meeting, this Special Issue is open to all colleagues who are working in the relevant areas.
https://www.annales-geophysicae.net/articles_and_preprints/scheduled_sis.ht…
Authors can submit their contributions by using the online registration form on the ANGEO website: https://www.annales-geophysicae.net/submission.html. The deadline for submission is 1 Jul 2023, but may be extended if there is sufficient demand/need. During the registration process it is important that the correct special issue is selected.
All submissions will be treated exactly the same as a regular submission to Annales, maintaining the highest quality of rigorous peer review and editorial standards. Papers will be published on-line as they become available and will form a digital collection. Thus there is no delay to publication once you have satisfied the reviewers and editors.
Obviously we would hope to capture a good number of papers detailing work presented at the joint workshop, but at the same time other relevant work is very welcome and the special issue is not limited to those who were able to attend the meeting, as described on the website:
"It is intended that this special issue would provide a snapshot of the state of the art in EISCAT and LPMR research, and as such the call is open to all colleagues working in these areas, even if they were not able to attend the joint meeting. As long as your work is related to EISCAT and/or layered phenomena in the mesosphere, you are welcome to submit an article."
Best regards
Andrew

*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) Open Call*
PITHIA-NRF <https://pithia-nrf.eu>(Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere
Integrated Research Environment and Access services: a Network of
Research Facilities) invites applications for access to a variety of the
*best **European**research facilities* (nodes) for studies and modelling
of physical processes acting in the Earth’s upper atmosphere, with
support from experts within the field. There are twelve nodes within
PITHIA-NRF all dedicated to investigating the plasmasphere, ionosphere
and/or thermosphere.
The access can be *physical access* (one-week visit with travel and
accommodation included) or *remote access* (one-month remote access with
weekly support). The available services or resources are limited, and a
competitive process is required following a defined procedure and
criteria for the selection of users.
*Project opportunities:*
Project opportunities and description of the nodes are available at the
information page
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/pithia-nrf-users/tna/tna-calls/fourth-tna-call>.
We encourage any potential applicants to discuss with the relevant node
about the project before submitting their proposals. The TNA Support
Centre <mailto:tna@pithia-nrf.eu> at PITHIA-NRF can help establishing
contact points with the nodes.
*When?*
This spring 2023 call is running from *15 January 2023* until *15
June**2023*. It is an *O**pen Call* and applications will be handled as
they arrive to streamline the timelines of the projects.
*Who?*
Access is provided for science projects to users from Academia, Small
and Medium Enterprises, Industry, and Public Organisations.
*How?*
The application should be filled in and submitted using the online form
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-4>. After submission,
eligibility and feasibility checks will be performed followed by the
scientific evaluation. Follow the instructions at
https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/second-tna-call.
