PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) 2nd Call
PITHIA-NRF (Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Integrated Research Environment and Access services: a Network of Research Facilities) invites applications for access to a variety of research facilities 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:
Information of project opportunities and description of the nodes are available at https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/second-tna-call. We encourage any potential applicants to discuss with the relevant node about the project before submitting their proposals. The TNA Support Centre (tna@pithia-nrf.eu) at PITHIA-NRF can help establishing contact points with the nodes.
When?
The call is open from 1 January 2022 until the deadline 15 March 2022. The application can be submitted at any time between these dates.
Who?
Access is provided for science projects to users from Academia, Small and Medium Enterprises, Industry, and Public Organisations.
How?
