The 14th International Symposium on Equatorial Aeronomy will be held in Africa for the first time in more than four decades, from October 19-23, 2015 at Bahir Dar University, in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia. Bahir Dar city, one of the tourist destinations in the country, is about 560km from the capital Addis Ababa. There are at least two flights per day to Bahir Dar from Addis Ababa. Addis Ababa, the capital of the African Union, is one of the most easily accessible African cities. There are many flights to Addis Ababa by major carriers, including direct flights from Washington DC and many European major cities.
The ISEA is organized approximately every three to four years and is a major event in the field of Aeronomy. It serves as a forum for scientists around the world to report and discuss their recent research outputs, results and progress related to the physics of the thermosphere and ionosphere at equatorial, low- and mid-latitudes. The ISEA14program includes six scientific sessions (shown below) with oral and poster portions that will be distributed over four and a half conference days. More information can be found at http://www.bdu.edu.et/isea14/
S1:Magnetosphere-Ionosphere coupling impact at low and mid latitude
S2:Longitudinal dependence of equatorial electrodynamics and storm-enhanced density
S3:Ionospheric irregularities and scintillations
S4:New results from recently deployed instrumentation
S5: Equatorial aeronomy related to atmosphere-ionosphere coupling
S6:Future opportunities using upcoming new mission and planned ground-based instrumentation
