Geospace Systems Science: Current Understanding and Future Planning

Session ID#: 160199

Session Description:
Understanding solar wind interaction with the Earth’s space environment is highly relevant to the NASA Heliophysics overarching goal and crucial to predict hazardous space weather impact on our high-tech society. The Earth’s magnetosphere system includes various regions like bow shock, magnetopause, magnetosphere, cusps, plasmasphere, plasmasheet, magnetotail, ring current, upper atmosphere, and exosphere. Each region is governed by different physical processes (e.g., magnetic reconnection, wave-particle interaction, neutral-ion charge exchange, and photoionization) at various spatiotemporal scales.  Understanding the holistic behavior of our dynamic magnetospheric system requires study of not only an individual region but also interconnection between the regions.  This session solicits papers addressing geospace systems science that utilize multi-point spacecraft observations, ground observations, theories, simulations, or combination of them.  We also invite mission concept studies for addressing unsolved questions in the geospace environment.
