SH51B:
Scientific Aspects of Space Weather Forecasting II Posters


Session ID#: 8711

Session Description:
New satellite-based observations and physics-based models encompassing the solar corona to Earth’s upper atmosphere are advancing space weather science. The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph and Solar Dynamics Observatory missions are providing comprehensive measurements of the structure and dynamics of solar drivers, and the Van Allen Probes are measuring manifestations of space weather at Earth. Furthermore, the Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission is expected to deliver new insights on magnetic reconnection, the most important physical process underlying space weather. Solar-heliosphere models now transitioned to operations are permitting 1-4 day advance warning of disturbances. Yet, enormous scientific challenges remain in understanding and forecasting space weather. We invite presentations covering fundamental science, modeling, and observations in the solar, heliosphere, magnetosphere and upper atmosphere domains. Talks addressing forecasting complex phenomena are welcome.
