Dear colleagues,

We invite you to participate in the ESWW10 (Antwerp, Belgium, 18-22
November 2013) submitting your contribution to the following session:

"Space weather effects on HF and trans-ionospheric radio wave
propagation"

Convenors: Ioanna Tsagouri, David Altadill, Nicolas Bergeot, Michael
Pezzopane

Space weather affects radio propagation conditions by means of
ionospheric disturbances in such manner and extent that can disrupt
various radio systems, such as HF and satellite communications,
navigation systems, remote sensing and specialized surveillance
operations. The broad range of the related applications and their
relevance in many of the contemporary human activities
requires continuous upgrade of our capabilities to cope with the
space weather effects on such systems. In this framework, we propose a session to
address recent advances in assessing ionospheric effects on radio propagation,
including total electron content and scintillation
effects, travelling ionospheric disturbances, together with HF
propagation effects. The current needs indicate the development and
implementation of methods, tools and services for monitoring and
predicting the ionospheric impact, but this in turn implies progress
in the understanding of the driving space weather mechanisms and
improvements to the observing capabilities. The proposed session aims
to welcome papers addressing all these aspects.

The ESWW10 website is available athttp://www.stce.be/esww10
and the submission is now open athttp://www.stce.be/esww10/abstract.php

Please note that the deadline for submitting abstracts is 31 May
2013.

We hope to see you in Antwerp.

With best regards,

Nicolas Bergeot (on behalf of session conveners)
