Dear ISWI Participant:

This is the July 1st issue -- there was no mid-June issue.

This newsletter is a free service to the entire ISWI community. If you want to publicize something that is related to space weather, please send it to me. Usually there are two issues per month.

[3] Request for Information: Future Directions in Solar Terrestrial Physics

SCOSTEP has initiated an effort to develop community consensus in defining its future activities based on surveys of (i) current status, (ii) knowledge gap, (iii) future directions in observations and modeling to fill the gaps. As a first step, a COSPAR-SCOSTEP Joint Session on Solar Terrestrial Physics has been organized during the 41st COSPAR scientific assembly in Istanbul on two days (August 5-6, 2016).

SCOSTEP scientific discipline representatives (SDRs), COSPAR Main Scientific Organizers (MSOs) and SCOSTEP/VarSITI leaders will be official delegates to this joint session and contribute to the discussion. All participants of the COSPAR scientific assembly are also invited to attend the session.

[4] CALLISTO status report/newsletter #63

New station commissioned in Austria
Recently a new Callisto solar radio-spectrometer has been set into operation at observatory ANTARES in Michelstadt, Austria. Due to the fact that the observatory is on top of a hill, the instrument is suffering from interference given the good sight to all surrounding transmitters. We are currently trying to filter a smaller part of a clean spectrum.

Congratulation to this achievement and welcome on board to eCallisto.
