Scientific paper

The STEREO Mission includes a Space Weather Group, whose purpose is to identify and promote the development of computer programs, modeling efforts and research studies in preparation for using the STEREO observations as a tool for Space Weather. Our activities are coordinated with the STEREO PI Teams and the STEREO Science Center (SSC) at GSFC, where the Beacon data will reside. The STEREO Beacon is the main STEREO effort focused on Space Weather; its main purpose is to provide low resolution, low cadence, near-real-time imaging and in-situ data to NOAA's Space Environment Center for forecasting. These data will also be publicly available through the SSC. In addition to the real-time Beacon data, the full science data stream will be downloaded to the SSC each day. These data will also be important for space weather, both for predicting and in improving our understanding of CMEs and related phenomena. A novel instrument on the STEREO mission pertinent for detecting CMEs in the inner heliosphere and forecasting their Earth arrival is the SECCHI Heliospheric Imagers. We will summarize preliminary plans for using the Beacon and HI data, as well as the full set of STEREO instrument data, for space weather purposes. Scientists from outside the STEREO consortia are invited to join in the group's efforts. See our website for further information.
