The Sun and Space weather

Viac o knihe

The book explores the impact of solar energy on space weather and its effects on Earth's environment. It delves into the concept of space weather systems, which describe short-term variations in solar activity and their consequences, such as geomagnetic storms and cosmic ray flux variability. These dynamic conditions in geospace can disrupt spacecraft and ground-based systems, leading to significant issues in communication, navigation, and power systems. Ultimately, the book highlights how space weather influences daily life and society through disruptions in GPS and radio wave propagation.
