International Workshop on GPS Meteorology 
- GPS Meteorology: Ground-Based and Space-Borne Applications - 

Tsukuba, Japan, in the period 14 (Tue) - 16 (Thu) Jan 2003


This workshop provides a forum for geoscientists worldwide to discuss 
and exchange information and ideas on the present status and the future 
of GPS meteorology and its related science and technology. The workshop 
will review the scientific achievements to date, and look forward 
to the future, not only of the ground-based and space-borne GPS meteorology 
and its applications to atmospheric sensing, but also of innovative 
GPS observing schemes and technologies, and new modeling methodology 
for monitoring Earth environment. 


There are sessions planned dedicated to the following topics:
-------------------------------------------------------------

   Session 1: Ground-based GPS meteorology 
    - Improvement of GPS analysis 
    - Slant path delay 
    - Real time GPS analysis 

   Session 2: Space-borne GPS meteorology and related fields 
    - Space-borne GPS meteorology 
    - Low elevation GPS path and reflection method 

   Special Session: Gravity Missions to Aqua Planet Earth 
    - CHAMP and GRACE, GRACE follow-on 
    - Gravity and Hydrosphere 

   Session 3: Applications of GPS data to Atmospheric Science
    - Data Assimilation to NWP model 
    - Tomography 
    - Impact of GPS to weather watch and forecast
