SA12A:
Multiscale Ionosphere Structuring Processes and Related Impact on Technology I
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 61515
Session Description:
It has been well recognized that severe space weather impacts arise from ionospheric density structures, which can potentially cause disruption, degradation, or blackout of satellite and terrestrial communications, radar, and radio navigation systems. Although much progress has been made in the study of ionospheric space weather in the last decade, many gaps remain in our understanding of some of the fundamental physical processes and the related impact on technologies, such as the performance and availability of satellite-based navigation and communication systems. In this session, we invite papers about recent progress and current understanding of the physical processes of ionospheric density structuring and the related impact on technologies. Observational, modeling, and theoretical studies are all encouraged.
