Venue: Royton Sapporo (+ Sapporo Media Park), N1 W11, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-0001, Japan
S-RAMP: STEP - Results, Applications and Modeling Phase; A five-year (1998-2002) effort to optimize the analysis of data obtained during the STEP period, sponsored by SCOSTEP.
(STEP: Solar-Terrestrial Energy Program, 1990-1997)

Major Objectives of S-RAMP:

To facilitate and enable the detailed study and understanding of coupling mechanisms between regions of the Sun-Earth system
To facilitate and enable effective data and information transfer and feedback between the experimental, theoretical, and computer modeling communities
To demonstrate products and benefits of the STEP endeavor to, for example, funding agencies, the media, and the public at large as the basis for future scientific programs, cross-discipline studies, and applications
