Understanding the structure and evolution of the interstellar medium, that involves a diverse range of phenomena and a wide range of scales, is an interesting exercise. I will briefly present how low radio frequency observations and numerical simulations can be utilized to explore a plethora of science cases like the local ISM conditions and the dynamics of nearby galaxies. I will particularly focus on three closely related aspects - the multiphase nature of the atomic ISM, interstellar turbulence and magnetic field - that play crucial roles in shaping the properties of the ISM, and highlight the latest insights and challenges in our understanding of the atomic interstellar medium. |
