- We now have our Targetted Observing Campaign plans on line -
please take a look
at the campaign details and determine whether you'd like to participate.
- The number of WHI participants has surpassed 200 people! Please help
us ensure that all of their science efforts have the maximum benefit.
As we begin to populate the website participating observers & modelers,
please consider whether there are any elements that would be beneficial
to add to the campaign.
- 15 December: WHI Special Session Proposal submitted for the IAU 2009

- WHI continues to grow, and we are pleased that CAWSES, ULTIMA, and a
number of Antarctic networks are joining! Additionally, a growing number of
magnetospheric and ionospheric networks are participating, which
is essential to complete the "extended impact."
October 2007
- Emails were sent to community mailing lists to inform about WHI and
its plans.
- WHI website populated, observing plans are beginning to be
submitted.
- The science team is growing - thank you to everyone who is
