Aiming to develop space-earth environmental research, the Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research (ISEE) is presenting an ISEE Award to a prominent research activity that is based on the ISEE Joint Research Program. ISEE seeks nominations for this new award.

Dr. Otsuka (Division for Ionospheric and Magnetospheric Research) has been selected as one of the 10 Top Reviewers in 2019 by the journal "Advances in Space Research".

A prototype telescope with the Schwarzschild-Couder optical system, developed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) project, successfully detected very-high-energy gamma rays from the Crab Nebula.

As an activity of SCOSTEP and its new program PRESTO (Predictability of Variable Solar-Terrestrial Coupling, 2020-2024), SCOSTEP/PRESTO Newsletter volume 23 has been published from ISEE, Nagoya University.

Application Deadline : 17:00 JST, May 10, 2020 (Sunday) extended to

Thursday, May 28, 2020 12:00 (JST)

The 2nd ISEE Award Ceremony and Commemorative Lecture were held at Sakata and Hirata Hall
The 2nd ISEE Award Winner is UCSD IPS group, who contributes to space-earth environmental research through the studies on the improvement of space weather forecasting by the computer-assisted tomography of interplanetary scintillation data.
 On behalf of the research group, Dr. B. V. Jackson received an award certificate and commemorative gift.

The 2nd ISEE Symposium was held from January 28 (Tue) to 30 (Thu), 2020, as a joint symposium with the 4th PSTEP International Symposium "Toward the Solar-Terrestrial Environmental Prediction as Science and Social Infrastructure."

As an activity of SCOSTEP and its new program PRESTO (Predictability of Variable Solar-Terrestrial Coupling, 2020-2024), SCOSTEP/PRESTO Newsletter volume 22 has been published from ISEE, Nagoya University.

Dr. Sneha Yadav (Division of Ionospheric and Magnetospheric Research, NICT Guest Researcher, & INSPIRE Faculty) received the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) - Medal for Young Scientist - on 18th December 2019 for her contribution towards understanding of low latitude ionosphere specific to Indian longitudes under varying space weather conditions.

ISEE and KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) co-hosted Korea-Japan Space Weather Workshop 2019 at KASI (Daejeon, Korea) from Nov. 28 to 29, 2019.
