The NSWAP details implementation steps that have been undertaken by Federal entities as part of the National Space Weather Strategy. This session will provide an update on the status of NSWAP research activities, lessons learned since publication of NSWAP, and a forum for discussion of basic and applied research that is necessary to meet NSWAP objectives. We invite presentations that fall on a broad spectrum from fundamental space weather research to the programmatic issues germane to NSWAP research. Topics related to the space environment that affect power grids, terrestrial and spacecraft communications and navigation, spacecraft operations, and survivability, as well as our ability to forecast these effects, are encouraged.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Co-Organized with:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>SPA-Magnetospheric Physics, SPA-Aeronomy, and SPA-Solar and Heliospheric Physics<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Cross-Listed:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>IN - Earth and Space Science Informatics, NH - Natural Hazards, SI - Societal Impacts and Policy Sciences<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>More information can be found at:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><a href="https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm16/preliminaryview.cgi/Session12537.html">https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm16/preliminaryview.cgi/Session12537.html</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Related NSWAP-focused sessions include:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>SH019: Space Weather Forecasting: Science, Operations, and Missing Information<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>PA012: Defining Extreme Space Weather Events<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>PA037: The National Space Weather Action Plan: Five Benchmarks for Extreme Space Weather Events<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Conveners:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>James McCollough<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Gian Luca Delzanno<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Eric Sutton<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Stephen White<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
