Description for Auroral Dynamics and Space Weather Hardcover. The aurora is the most visible manifestation of the connection of the Earth to the space environment and has inspired awe, curiosity, and scientific inquiry for centuries. Series: Geophysical Monograph Series. Num Pages: 324 pages. BIC Classification: PHVG; RB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 224 x 287 x 24. Weight in Grams: 1224.

The aurora is the most visible manifestation of the connection of the Earth to the space environment and has inspired awe, curiosity, and scientific inquiry for centuries.  Recent advances in observing techniques and modeling and theoretical work have revealed new auroral phenomena, provided a better understanding of auroral dynamics, and have led to an enhanced capability for auroral forecasts.

This monograph features discussions of:                                       

  • New auroral phenomena due to the ring current ion and polar rain electron precipitation
  • Various auroral forms and ... Read more
  • Auroral model development and MHD simulations
  • Application of the auroral observations for radio absorption and scintillation
  • Aurora nowcast and forecast for space weather operations 

Auroral Dynamics and Space Weather is a valuable contribution for scientists, researchers, space weather operators, and students of Earth's space environment.

About Yongliang Zhang (Ed.)
Dr. Yongliang Zhang is a Senior Scientist at the Applied Physics Laboratory in Johns Hopkins University, Laurel, Maryland, USA. His research focuses on aurora, ionosphere and thermosphere remote sensing based on image intensifier (FUV) measurements. He developed many algorithms for FUV based auroral (precipitating electrons, boundary), thermosphere (O/N2 ratio, NO column density), and ionosphere (TEC) products using image data. These ...
