Space Weather: Capturing Events and Their Geoeffectiveness

ATM-0001653国际和平研究所提议制定一个概念，以提高观察空间天气对磁层-电离层系统的影响的可能性，并处理与空间天气现象有关的基本物理过程。这将通过将敏感的地面设备的操作集中在可能具有破坏性的空间天气条件下进行。通过结合航天器观测分析这些观测结果，SRI可以更好地了解太阳风和磁层之间以及磁层和电离层之间的耦合(一般称为空间气象“地球有效性”)。因此，该提案的总体目标是通过对该方案实施业务阶段和基础研究阶段来观察和分析空间气象地效。该方案的运作阶段旨在提供一个空间气象警报系统，在活动期间向观察员通报太阳和空间情况，以便能够制定适当的地面行动规划。为非相干散射雷达界制定和执行这样一项警报协议是在过去的国家安全计划资助下制定的。该计划的基础研究阶段旨在通过分析亚风暴、风暴和对流海湾的数据来研究空间天气事件的地质有效性。由于获得的数据集将使所有这些专题受益，预计其结果将有助于目前和未来的一些空间气象研究方案。

ATM-0001653The PI proposes to develop a concept that will improve the possibility of observing the impact of space weather on the magnetosphere-ionosphere system, and that will address fundamental physical processes related to space weather phenomena. This will be done by focusing operations of sensitive ground based equipment to occur during potentially disruptive space weather conditions. By analyzing these observations in conjunction with spacecraft observations, SRI can develop an improved understanding of the coupling between the solar wind and magnetosphere and between the magnetosphere and ionosphere (generally termed space weather "geoeffectiveness"). Thus, the overall objective of the proposal is to observe and analyze space weather geoeffectiveness by implementing an operational phase and a basic research phase to the program. The operational phase of the program is designed to provide a space weather alert system that notifies observers of solar and space conditions during times of activity so that appropriate planning of ground-based operations can be established. The development and implementation of such an alert protocol for the incoherent-scatter radar community was established under past NSWP funding. The basic research phase of the program is designed to study the geoeffectiveness of the space weather event by analyzing data in the form of substorms, storms, and convection bays. As the acquired data sets will benefit all of these topics, it is anticipated that the results will contribute to a number of space weather research programs, present and future.
