A Global Network of International Action Teams Targeting Improvements of Resilience to Space Weather.
Session ID#: 83221
Session Description:
Understanding and predicting space weather and its impact on society is acknowledged as a global challenge. To address the need to join forces and to maximize return on efforts the COSPAR Panel on Space Weather coordinates an active network of International Space Weather Action Teams (ISWAT, http://www.iswat-cospar.org). Action teams are organized into clusters and work in coordinated effort to improve resilience to space weather. The initiative is building upon established efforts and facilitates emerging of new teams and ideas. We solicit contributions from teams focused on different aspects of space weather including advancing understanding, assessment and improvement of predictive capabilities, utilization of available observations, transition of research ideas to applications, and inputs for future missions planning. We particularly encourage submissions on space weather community-wide initiatives and campaigns and invite discussions on global coordination in space weather.
