This conference will review the current status, identify unresolved
issues, define the direction to
resolution, and elucidate the interrelationship between storms and
substorms to advance the
understanding of the magnetosphere. This conference will emphasize
studies using correlated
data from ground-based and multispacecraft observations to understand
the storm-substorm
relationship.
I) TITLE - The title of the abstract should be composed in a standard title format, capitalizing the first letter of all words of four or more letters. Insert one blank line after title.
II)AUTHOR BLOCK- The author block should contain the name of a presenting author that should be enclosed in brackets and asterisks, like so: [*I M First*]. If there is no presenting author, then input [*!*] at the beginning of the author block. Input your author block by typing the author's name, then putting their address, phone, fax, and e-mail information in parentheses, ( ). Do not put each author on a separate line, but rather, separate each author's information with a semi-colon (;). Leave one blank line after the author block.
III)ABSTRACT TEXT - Special symbols or graphics should not be used in composing the abstract. Leave one blank line between paragraphs and after the body.
IV)SUBMITTAL INFORMATION - This section is to record information about which meeting the abstract is being submitted to and to obtain contact information. Please provide the following:
1. Title of meeting (Chapman Conference on Storm-Substorm Relationship)

Topography causes wide variations in the
properties of alpine snow within small areas, and
a knowledge of the spatial variation of many
properties is essential for the application of
distributed hydrologic models and for establishing
the surface boundary condition for regional
climate models. However, the topography affects
the electromagnetic remote sensing signal by
shadowing some terrain and by modifying the
angles of incidence, emission, and reflection of
the signal, and our knowledge of the elevation
model is usually not precise enough to allow
a priori calculation of the geometric relationships
between the surface, sensor, and the Sun. Hence
remote sensing algorithms must be robust to such
uncertainties, except in areas where topographic
knowledge is especially good.
The most elementary snow property is the
presence or absence of a snow cover, and snow
mapping -- discrimination of snow from other
types of surfaces and from clouds -- is best
accomplished with a combination of visible and
near-infrared wavelengths.

TITLE: The title of the abstract should be in uppercase and lowercase
bold type, capitalizing the first letter of all words of four
letters or more. Indent second line of title two spaces if it runs
over. Leave one blank line after title.
AUTHOR BLOCK: Type names of authors (no punctuation) and addresses in uppercase and lowercase letters. Also include telephone and fax numbers and e-mail addresses. Underline the name of the author who will present the paper. Indent the second and subsequent lines two spaces. Separate author information with a semicolon. Leave one blank line after author block.
ABSTRACT: Leave one blank line between paragraphs.
Do not exceed the maximum abstract dimensions: standard, 11.8 cm wide x 18 cm long; extended, 11.8 cm wide x 28 cm long. Abstract length is measured from the top line of the title to the last line of the abstract text. An extended abstract must be submitted on legal-size paper (8.5" x 14"). Abstracts exceeding the 11.8 cm width requirement will be returned to you. Abstracts exceeding the 28 cm length limit will be cut off to conform to the appropriate size.
Abstracts are photocopied exactly as they are received, with approximately a 40% reduction in size, for printing in the meeting program that contains all abstracts accepted for the meeting. Therefore copy must be of letter-quality type, and you must use at least 12-pitch type or 11-point font size, or your abstract may not be readable.
