Activities
The Commission deals with the study of the ionosphere in order to provide the broad understanding necessary to support space and ground-based radio systems. Specifically, the Commission addresses the following areas:
- Global morphology and modelling of the ionosphere;
- Ionospheric space-time variations and the impacts of space weather on systems;
- Development of tools and networks needed to measure ionospheric properties and trends;
- Theory and practice of radio propagation in and through the ionosphere;
- Application of ionospheric information to radio systems.
To achieve these objectives, the Commission co-operates with other URSI Commissions, corresponding bodies of the ISC family (IUGG, IAU, COSPAR, SCOSTEP, SCAR, etc.) and other organisations (ITU, IEEE, etc.).
