Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (HamSCI[1]) will hold its sixth annual
workshop on March 22 - 23, 2024, at Case Western Reserve University in
Cleveland, Ohio. The event is meant to bring together the amateur radio
community and professional scientists.

The 2024 workshop's theme will be "Alignments" - specifically those between the
Sun, Moon, and Earth; collegiate amateur radio recreation and science,
technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curricula; data collection and
analysis, and professional and citizen science. Workshop participants will
prepare for the solar eclipse taking place on April 8, 2024, which will be seen
in totality from Cleveland. �

HamSCI's main interest is using amateur radio for the characterization and
study of ionospheric phenomena like traveling ionospheric disturbances,
sporadic E, solar flares, geomagnetic storms, the 2024 total solar eclipse, and
other space weather events. To facilitate this science, continued development
of the HamSCI Personal Space Weather Station[2] and discussion about
integrating amateur radio into the collegiate curriculum will also take place
during the workshop. �

Registration is now open, and the deadline is March 1, 2024. HamSCI is also
accepting presentations relating to amateur radio and science -- particularly
space and atmospheric science, space weather, and radio astronomy -- that
analyze the ionosphere, propose ideas for the Personal Space Weather Station,
and discuss the 2024 eclipse. �

Presentations should be the form of talks, posters, lightning talks, and
demonstrations. The Science Program Committee will be accepting abstracts and
presentations. �

If you would like to present, please submit your abstract by February 10, 2024.
Presenters will be notified about their acceptance by March 1, 2024. Questions
about abstracts should be emailed to Nathaniel Frissell, W2NAF, at
[email protected][3]. �
