URSI Radioscientist

version française

The Network of Correspondents was established by the URSI Council at the 1993 General Assembly in Kyoto to provide direct contact with radio scientists throughout the world. Membership is for a three-year period following a General Assembly. All registrants at a General Assembly automatically become Correspondents, as do URSI Officials. In addition, URSI Member Committees may designate a number of radio scientists in their respective countries or territories, and other radio scientists may seek inclusion in the Network by applying to the URSI Secretariat and paying a fee. The Network presently comprises over 2200 scientists.

At the Maastricht General Assembly (August 2002) Council decided to change the name "URSI Correspondent" into "URSI Radioscientist".

As an URSI Radioscientist, one receives :

1. the quarterly Radio Science Bulletin;
2. reduced subscription rates for some URSI-related technical journals such as "Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics", "Radio Science" and "Wireless Networks" (More information about these journals here);
3. reduced registration fees at certain URSI-sponsored symposia and conferences.

Though URSI Radioscientists have no voting rights in Commission Business Meetings, they are encouraged to express their views on scientific matters.
