商品描述

The editors present a state of the art overview on the Physics of Space Weather and its effects on technological and biological systems on the ground and in space. Beginning with a general introduction and historical review, the book summarizes important milestones in observation and understanding of space weather and its consequences. Further chapters explore the impact of the variation of solar and interplanetary conditions on the plasma and magnetic field structure of Earth's magnetosphere, and the physics of disruptions in radio-wave and GPS systems. The book concludes with an outlook on the future of space weather research and projects in the timeframe until 2015.
