Earth Ionosphere: Solar-Terrestrial Relations
Scientific paper
The solar-terrestrial system involves a myriad of macro- and microphysical processes that challenge the development of a unified physical description of solar, magnetospheric, interplanetary, and thermospheric controls of the global-scale ionosphere. A well-planned interdisciplinary effort combining theoretical modelling with a coordinated measurement program should lead to significant advances in our understanding of the solar-terrestrial system as a whole and the development of a real-time predictive capability for a world-wide specification of ionospheric conditions as they are dictated by the controlling subsystem inputs. The SUNDIAL program has such a focus, with a combined modelling and measurement program that includes solar, solar wind, interplanetary and geomagnetic data, and nearly 70 ionospheric monitoring stations at high-, middle- and low-latitudes in the American, European/African, and Asian/Australian sectors. The authors review the measurement and modelling elements in the the program, discuss perspectives on global-scale ionospheric predictability, and highlight some of the accumulating results which address magnetospheric substorms and the triggering of equatorial spread-F.
