Space Weather
by Klaus (edt) Scherer
Synopses & Reviews The various processes that connect the physics of the Sun with that of the Earth`s environment has become known as "Space Weather" during recent years, a slogan that has emerged in connection with many other expressions adapted from meteorology, such as solar wind, magnetic clouds or polar rain. This volume is intended as a first graduate-level textbook-style account on the physics of these solar-terrestrial relations and their impact on our natural and technological environment. Table of Contents Introduction to Space Weather.- The Sun and its Restless Magnetic Field.- The Application of Radio Diagnostics to the Study of the Solar Drivers of Space Weather.- Interplanetary Disturbances.- The Magnetosphere.- Space Weather Effects in the Upper Atmosphere: Low and Middle Latitudes.- Space Weather Effects in the Upper Atmosphere: High Latitudes.- Space Weather Effects on Technology.- Radiation Risks From Space.- Index.
