Description

The Geospace Science and Technology Branch has opportunities focused on exploring the complex interactions and multi-scale coupling within the thermosphere-ionosphere. We are interested in understanding the systematic response of the thermosphere and ionosphere to forcing from above as well as below through ground-based and space-based observations, empirical modeling, and first-principles physics-based modeling.
