| Session Description | Space weather impacts human activities, such as communications, navigations, spacecraft operations, aviation, and electric power. It is important for space weather researches to resolve coupling processes between different regimes using observations and simulations. This session gives opportunity to discuss latest progress of the space weather researches on the sun, solar wind, magnetosphere, ionosphere, thermosphere and modeling efforts for them. |
