Program Session and Chair:

Pathway 1:
To obtain forecasts more than 1 day ahead of the magnetic structure of incoming CMEs to improve alerts for geomagnetic disturbances, related ionospheric variability and geospace energetic particles. Propagation of Solar Eruption through the heliosphere, prediction of magnetospheric-ionospheric response.
Session | Focus | Chair |
---|---|---|
Session 1 | From Sun to Earth and Beyond: CME propagation in interplanetary space | Manuela Temmer |
Session 2 | Effects of CMEs on Earth and Other Planetary Bodies | Hermann Opgenoorth |
Session 9 | Down to Earth: Coupling Space Weather and Atmospheric Response | William Ward |
Pathway 2:
To understand the particle environments of (aero) space assets leading to improved environmental specification and near-real time conditions. Radiation belt energisation and losses, creation and propagation of SEPs.

Session 3: | From Cradle to Grave: Particle Energization and Space Environmental Effects | Arnaud Masson |
Session 4: | Towards improved specification and nowcasting/forecasting of the particle radiation environment | Ioannis A. Daglis |
Pathway 3:
To enable pre-event forecasts of solar flares and CMEs and related SEP storms for near-Earth satellites, astronauts, ionospheric conditions and polar route aviation including all clear conditions. Prediction of solar eruptions for spectral irradiance & SEPs, prediction of geospace responses to solar inputs.

Session 5 | From Convective Zone to Heliosphere: CME precursors, initiation and onsets | Jorg Buchner |
Session 6 | Predicting Energetic Solar Phenomena and the Geospace response | Nat Gopalswamy |
Session 8 | Space Weather and the Solar Cycle | Dibyendu Nandi |
Pathway 4:
Assessing impact and our current predictive capability. These cross-cutting sessions will consider how space weather interacts with technological and biological systems, and how current models and tools are able to predict these interactions. Particular focus will be given to which techniques and approaches can best be applied in order to determine and quantify model and tool predictive capabilities.
