Session Description | Solar Terrestrial Physics has reached the level of understanding that solar wind, magnetosphere, plasmasphere, ionosphere and atmosphere are all parts of a single coupled system, and different aspects of the system can be best studied using different techniques. This session provides a forum to present and discuss ground-based and in situ observations and modeling studies of the solar wind, magnetosphere, plasmasphere, ionosphere, thermosphere and mesosphere lower-thermosphere (MLT) regions during normal and extreme solar wind conditions. |
