CEDAR email: Fall AGU 2015 Session: Scientific Aspects of Space Weather Forecasting

[Mannucci, Anthony J (335G)]

Dear Colleagues,

We welcome your contribution to session SH001: Scientific Aspects of Space Weather Forecasting, co-organized with SPA-Solar and Heliospheric Physics and SPA-Aeronomy, cross-listed with SPA-Magnetospheric Physics.

The session description is below. Abstracts are due August 5. https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm15/preliminaryview.cgi/Session8711.

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Anthony Mannucci, Spiro Antiochos and Tamas Gombosi

Session ID#: 8711
Scientific Aspects of Space Weather Forecasting
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.
