September 8, 2009 Space Weather Research in the Antarctic Recent NSF MRI and Polar Programs Projects ($2M) to build a chain of space weather observing stations in Antarctica.

September 8, 2009 Modeling of Active Space Experiments 1. Modeling of space plasma turbulence due to chemical releases in space for controlling space weather processes. (ONR, DARPA) 2. Modeling of artificial heating of natural dust layers in the near earth environment for diagnostic purposes. (NSF) 3. Modeling of creation, evolution and associated plasma turbulence of artificial dust layers in the near earth environment. (ONR, DARPA) The current effort utilizes a broad spectrum of advanced computational methods and high performance computing. Work lead by W.A. Scales with 4 PhD students currently (~ 1M in total funding). The work is becoming increasingly of a classified nature.
