  1. Int’l Communication & Coordination Related to Extreme Space Weather Events From KSWC’s perspective April 18, 2013 Jinwook Han(rfjin@msip.go.kr) Korean Space Weather Center

  2. KSWC’s Work Procedures • We take actions according to NOAA SWx scales • If level 3+ event occurs, we provide the press release for public 1 Send alert messages (SMS/email/fax, automatic) KSWC level 2 3 Notify to key customers (phone call, forecaster) Status updates at website Report to the Ministry Press release NOAA SWx Scales Ministry level 4 Notify to related Ministries (Defense, Transport, Communication, Energy, Meteorological, Security…) Issue a national space weather disaster alert (by Space Weather Disaster Management Manual) National level 5

  3. Issues in SWx Services #1. Ambiguity in forecast information #2. Too many frightened descriptions #3. Lack of post event analysis

  4. Issue #1 : Ambiguity in forecasting • ISES scaleor NOAA scale? Correlation? • Probability numberor Stop sign?

  5. Issue #1 : Ambiguity in forecastingHow about using NOAA scale and probability for forecasting? o KSWC : Geomagnetic warning, Valid From: 2013 Apr 29 0100 UTC, Valid To: 2013 Apr 30 0800 UTC

  6. Issue #2 : Frightened descriptions Huge solar flare shoots out particles at 3million mph as scientists predict weekend of powerful sunstorms Scientists braced for 'solar tsunami' to hit earth Scientists On High Alert: Massive Solar Flare Could Huge and SevereDamage The Power Grid A Huge Solar Flare Will Bring The End Of The World In Months…

  7. Satellite Aviation Power Issue #3 : Post event analysis • Collect disruption & damage information on the user sectors • Evaluate the forecast & alert service quality on each event • Share the information between RWCs Sweden Russian Federation Poland Czech Republic Canada China Comm.
