Description

The Solar, Heliospheric, and Interplanetary Environment (SHINE) program supports research to enhance understanding and predictive capabilities of processes by which energy in the form of magnetic fields and particles are produced by the Sun and/or accelerated in interplanetary space. It focuses on mechanisms transporting these fields and particles to Earth through the inner heliosphere. Proposals are solicited for research related to topics discussed at SHINE community workshops under focused topic areas. The program is broad-based and encourages grass-roots community involvement.
