Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite you to attend the Chapman Conference on "Scientific Challenges Pertaining to Space Weather Forecasting Including Extremes" occurring February 11-15, 2019 in Pasadena, California, USA (https://bit.ly/2v7XLjY). We look forward to bringing together the solar and geospace communities to review and advance our scientific understanding of solar-terrestrial relationships as they relate to forecasting space weather, from moderate to extreme conditions. We hope to have strong international participation and a diverse pool of participants. This Chapman Conference is meant to create new community perspectives that will accelerate space weather forecasting as a scientific discipline, and address the barriers that currently exist in its development.
Discussion among the participants will be a major focus of the meeting. The outcome of the discussion will be used to suggest new research directions within the community.
Abstract submission (https://bit.ly/2M1Br1B) is now open (deadline: October 24, 2018). Travel and registration fee support has been requested and may be available via AGU travel grant application (see website).
