Presentation Transcript

  1. HAO Space Weather Program Integrating AIM and SAH Research • Formation and Space Weather Effects of Coronal Mass Ejections, Flares and Other Solar Influences • Solar Wind Influences on Magnetospheric Electrodynamics and Energetics • Ionspheric and Thermospheric Response to Solar Radiation and Geomagnetic Forcing Utilize new observations to validate NCAR and community models, and determine the solar origins of geomagnetic events. HAO facilities produce observations and model outputs which are essential to Space Weather research. Integrating these data into the HAO Virtual Solar-Terrestrial Observatory (VSTO) will further enhance their usage to the scientific community.

  2. HAO MK4 (inner corona) LASCO C2 (outer corona) Magnetosphere electron densities; auroral ionosphere inset Combined images of the sun on Dec 7, 2000 from EIT (disk), HAO MK4 and NASA LASCO with sketch of solar wind speed (blue) from Ulysses spacecraft. McComas et al. 2003 New and unique: Utilize and validate our in-house global models (e.g. CMIT, TIE-GCM) to provide a better understanding of the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling and the consequent mass and energy transport throughout the magnetosphere/ ionsphere/ thermosphere system and improve specifications of dynamic conditions New and unique: Combine new magnetic field observations (e.g. HAO/COMP, Solar-B) and unique low corona observations from HAO/Mauna Loa and the new NASA STEREO mission, with MHD models to study the magnetic structures of the corona (e.g. CMEs) and the solar wind.
