*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) Open Call*
*PITHIA-NRF* (Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Integrated Research
Environment and Access services: a Network of Research Facilities)
launches its *fifth call* to provide effective and convenient access to
the best European research facilities for observations of the upper
atmosphere, including the *plasmasphere*, *ionosphere* and
*thermosphere*. The access is organised through the Trans-National
Access (TNA) programme, and provides an opportunity for researcher and
other users to execute and carry out their own projects at one of the
twelve PITHIA-NRF research facilities. You can get information on the
*/PITHIA-NRF Nodes/* here
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/pithia-nrf-users/tna/nodes> and view details on
PITHIA-NRF assets by accessing the */PITHIA-NRF Knowledge Book/* here
<http://194.177.195.242/pithia_entities/ui>.
*What?*
The PITHIA-NRF nodes provide access to key experimental and data
processing facilities for studies and modelling of physical processes
acting in the Earth’s plasmasphere, ionosphere and thermosphere. The
facilities connected to the nodes are geographically distributed over
Europe, as well as internationally, and their expertise and dedication
span over a wide range of topics within the research area.
Users can request either *physical access* (one-week visit at the node
with support at site) or *remote access* (one month access from distance
with weekly support). Users with granted projects will learn how to work
with the facilities during the full access cycle, from setting up a
campaign, to collection, analysis and finally exploitation of data.
*When?*
The call is an *Open Call* - applications are handled as they arrive
with evaluation times of 2 to 3 weeks. The call closes on *30 November
2023*.
*Who?*
Access can be requested by scientific users from academia, Small and
Medium Enterprises, large companies and public organizations.
*How?*
The application is made by using the online form
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-5>. Follow the
instructions at
https://pithia-nrf.eu/pithia-nrf-users/tna/tna-calls/fifth-tna-call. We
strongly 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.

EISCAT Peer-Review Programme: Open Call for Applications
(sorry for any cross-posting)
The EISCAT Scientific Association invites applications for *observing
time on the EISCAT facilities in 2024*, by individual scientists,
research groups, and consortia*throughout the world on equal,
competitive basis*. This means that anyone can apply, independent of
whether or not the applicant is from an EISCAT associate country.
The present call is the first one for 2024. In total, *200 hours of
experiment time* are open for international, peer-reviewed competition,
and are available for the use of any of the current EISCAT facilities.
Roughly half of this time is allocated in each call.
Please refer for more information and instructions how to apply to:
https://eiscat.se/news/eiscat-peer-reviewed-program-experiments-3/
The deadline for applications is *1 November 2024 at 24:00 UTC*.

Interested in Space Physics and adventure?
We are employing a PhD student at the University Centre in Svalbard to research exciting new aurora-like features called 'fragments'. If you - or anyone you know - would like to live in the world's northernmost town and use world-class auroral observatories and radars then please check out the job advert:
https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/251211/phd-position-in-arcti…
Please spread the word to anyone you think might be interested and get in touch (katieh(a)unis.no) if you have any questions.
Warm regards,

Due to the demand for hotels in Tromsø during the summer months, it is
recommended to book your hotel/accommodations as soon as possible.
More details about registration and abstract submission will be released
in the future.
2024 is an important year for the incoherent scatter community as it
will be the first year of EISCAT 3D operations. We hope to see initial
results from the system presented at the Symposium!
The registration fee is planned to include coffee breaks, lunches, a
