SA23B:
Employing Space Physics to Mitigate Space Weather Impacts Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 45338

Session Description:
In recent years there has been renewed focus on applying space physics theory, models, and data to operational environments. In particular, the National Space Weather Action Plan, the NASA Space Environments Technical Discipline Team, and the International CCMC-LWS Workshop have all led to better coordination and advancement in the field of space weather. The goal of this session is to further broaden community engagement by advertising ongoing challenges and recent accomplishments in space physics. Presentations are welcome on a wide range of topics, including innovative approaches for forecasting and specification, model development and assessment, incorporation of new data sets, transition activities, and operational needs.
