XIV COLAGE – Conferencia Latinoamericana de Geofísica Espacial
Total Solar Eclipse
Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico
8-13 April 2024
The Asociación Latinoamericana de Geofísica Espacial (ALAGE) is an
autonomous scientific society that attempts to motivate the development of
research in Space Geophysics, taking advantage of the human resources and
the cultural unity, as well as the similar economic conditions of Latin
America. ALAGE seeks to complement the activities of the existing regional geophysical organizations.
One of the main activities of ALAGE is the periodic organization of scientific meetings that are attended by most of the scientists and postgraduate students working worldwide in the ALAGE areas of interest: the middle and high atmosphere, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, the interplanetary medium, the cosmic rays, the planets,
satellites, minor planets and small bodies, the Sun and the
Solar-terrestrial environment. These meetings are called Conferencia
Latinoamericana de Geofísica Espacial (COLAGE).
Previous COLAGE workshops have been held in diverse locations: Brazil
(1988), Mexico (1991), Cuba, (1993), Argentina (1996), Costa Rica, (1998)
Chile (2001), Brazil (2004), Mexico (2007), Costa Rica (2011), Peru
(2014), Argentina (2018), Chile (2021, online), and Brazil (2022).
The XIV COLAGE will be held at the Autonomous University of Nuevo León (UANL), Monterrey, Mexico, from 8-13 April 2024, to celebrate the total solar eclipse on 8th April 2024.
The focus of the upcoming COLAGE in Monterrey
will include the following scientific fields:
• Space Weather
• Ionospheric Research
• Neutral Atmosphere Dynamics
• Solar Physics
• Earth Magnetic Field, including Ground Magnetism
• Interplanetary Magnetic Field, including Magnetospheric Physics
• Non-Linear Processes
Cosmic Rays
COLAGE International Space Science School (ISSS)
Historically, ALAGE also promotes schools associated with COLAGEs. The
International Space Science School (ISSS) will take place from April 5
to 7, 2024, at the same venue of the XIV COLAGE. The aim of the school
is promoting knowledge and training for undergraduate, master’s and
doctoral candidates, from all over the world, in the area of Space
Sciences, covering topics such as the Sun and the Solar Activity,
Interplanetary Medium and the Solar Wind, Magnetosphere, Ionosphere, High
Atmosphere, Planetary Sciences and Space Weather.
