Abstract :
We are conducting three initiatives in SERC, Kyushu University, in order to accomplish the ISWI objectives. The first is an instrument array (MAGDAS) program to deploy new and existing observation networks. The second is data coordination to develop predictive models using MAGDAS and JAXA satellite data. And the third is training, education (that is capacity building), and public outreach programs, such as the ISWI/MAGDAS workshop, school and ISWI Newsletter. An update on MAGDAS activities to the ISWI in 2010 will be summarized in the present paper.
