*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) Open Call (extended deadline)
*
/The deadline for the 7th PITHIA-NRF TNA call has been extended to 2
October.*
*/
*PITHIA-NRF* launches its *seventh TNA call*. This is *the FINAL call
*in the frame of PITHIA-NRF project 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
PITHIA-NRF research facilities.
*The call is open from 15 August 2024*. It is an *Open Call* and
applications are handled as they arrive with typical evaluation times of
2 to 3 weeks. If accepted the projects can commence for organisation and
realisation from September 2024 and the project report must be submitted
at the latest by the end of February 2025. *The call closes on 2 October
2024*.
More information about the call can be obtained from the call website:
https://pithia-nrf.eu/pithia-nrf-users/tna/tna-calls/seventh-tna-call
Access can be requested by scientific users from academia, Small and
Medium Enterprises, large companies and public organizations by
proposing a scientific project and filling in the online application

Dear Colleagues,
We are looking for a full-time Doctoral researcher for a period of three years, starting 1st January 2025, at the Space Physics and Astronomy Research Unit of the University of Oulu. The position is part of the Finnish national Doctoral Education Pilot for Mathematics of Sensing, Imaging and Modelling (DREAM). DREAM will educate in total 100 doctors located at 7 Finnish universities in a diverse and multidisciplinary setting, encompassing applied mathematics, physics, engineering, and applied sciences.
https://oulunyliopisto.varbi.com/what:job/jobID:748647/
The Space Physics project will include use and development of advanced incoherent scatter radar data analysis tools for novel observations of the ionosphere with the EISCAT3D radar system. The radar observations will be combined with data from other ground-based and satellite instruments to study particle precipitation, energy transfer processes, and plasma flows in the auroral magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere system.
Requirements: MSc in Space Physics or a related field. Good programming skills are necessary. Experience in space physics datasets, inverse problems, and high-power computing are considered benefits, but are not required.
Please spread the word among colleagues and potential candidates!
