The Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Reasearch Laboratory (MIRL) at the Institute for the Study of Earth, Oceans, and Space (EOS), University of New Hampshire contributes to a variety of research projects in space physics. The lab primarily focuses on the development of instrumentation for ground-based, rocket-based, and satellite observations of space physics phenomena and analysis of the resulting observations.

The current research projects are:

• Ground-based observations from ultra low frequency (ULF) and extremely low frequency (ELF) search-coil magnetometers for the study of magnetosphere-ionopshere coupling and its relationship with auroral phenomena.
• Rocket-borne observations from low light imager, UV PMT, particle detector for in-situ auroral measurements.
• Data analysis from a variety of satellite data
