Message from the MIST mailing list. Dear colleagues, I've been asked to forward the following announcement for a summer school in Italy on solar-terrestrial relations. This may be of interest to students in the MIST community. ----- The International School of Space Science of the Consorzio Interuniversitario per la Fisica Spaziale organizes a Course on "Heliospheric physical processes for understanding Solar-Terrestrial Relations", to be held in L'Aquila, Italy, September 21-26, 2015, and directed by V. Carbone, G. Consolini and T. Dudok de Wit. A good understanding of solar-terrestrial processes is fundamental to modelling the influence of solar variability on the Earth's environment and climate. To capture all the physical aspects of the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere-atmosphere interaction, and also the impact of solar variability on climate, the Sun-Earth system has to be studied as a whole. The main purpose of this school is to provide graduate, PhD students and also young post-doc researchers with a global view of the main physical processes by which solar variability affects the Earth's environment. In addition, an overview of different data analysis and methods for describing solar-terrestrial relations will be given. The school will provide a mix of lectures and activities requiring students participation. Applications are due before May 17th 2015 through the School website http://www.cifs-isss.org/application For further information visit http://www.cifs-isss.org/ or send an e-mail to [log in to unmask] Best regards Dott.
