[2] Announcement on two Topical Issues of Advances in Space Research

Authors are invited to contribute manuscripts for two special issues (SI) of Advances in Space Research (ASR):

SI: "Recent results on solar and heliospheric phenomena affecting Earth"
(Guest Eds.: Cristina Mandrini & Hebe Cremades)
Article type: "Special Issue: SOL-HEL Phenomena - Earth"

SI: "Magnetosphere, ionosphere and their connection to Space Weather"
(Guest Eds.: Daniel Gomez & Sergio Dasso)
Article type: "Special Issue: Space weather connection"

Deadline for submission is March 31, 2019 and accepted articles will be published free of charge. Please note that these topical issues are not conference proceedings and are open to all scientists who may have an appropriate scientific paper related to the title of the issues. Attendees of the XI COLAGE meeting (held in Buenos Aires from 16 to 20 April 2018) are specially encouraged to submit their papers.

Papers must be submitted electronically to ees.elsevier.com/asr. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the appropriate SI, authors must select the corresponding SI as listed above when they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process.

Submitted papers must be written in English and should include full affiliation addresses for all authors. Only full-length papers will be considered for publication, subject to peer review by two reviewers. Even though there is no page limit, the length of the paper should be appropriate the material being presented.

While not required, it would be helpful for planning purposes if authors who plan on submitting papers provide the appropriate guest editors (mandrini[at]iafe.uba.ar or dgomez[at]df.uba.ar) with the following information as soon as or possible:

• Name of corresponding author
• Tentative Title
• Tentative submission date

The general format for submission of papers is on the ASR Elsevier web site; format questions can be directed to the Editor-in-Chief of ASR, Peggy Ann Shea (sssrc[at]msn.com).

Best regards,
Daniel Gómez

[5] Third Announcement - FReSWeD 2019 Towards Future Research on Space Weather Drivers
July 2-7, 2019, San Juan, Argentina

This meeting will promote the exchange of information in the area of space weather, from the point of view of the phenomena that drive it from its origin in the solar atmosphere, through its evolution in the interplanetary medium, to its arrival in geospace. The event will be accompanied by a school with a mix of introductory tutorials, demos and hands-on labs.

This meeting and associated school are being organized on the occasion of the total solar eclipse of 2019, whose totality path will cross five provinces of Argentina extending for more than 1200 km.
