4 What is Space Weather? Solar eruptive events (solar flares, coronal Mass Space weather describes the conditions in space ejections (CMEs)) are the main drivers of space that affect Earth and its technological systems. weather generation propagation interaction Space weather is a consequence of the behaviour sun interplanetary space of the sun, the nature of Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere, and our shock location waves in the solar system. magnetosphere/earth solar eruptive events expelled plasma & magnetic fields accelerated particles potentially geoeffective agents after Scherer et. al 2004 radio emission 4
5 The Earth s Space Environment This schematic diagram shows the sun, solar wind, and Earth s magnetosphere, the environment in which space weather is generated. 5

12 Geomagnetically Induced Currents GIC occur at the end of the space weather chain. GICs are driven by electric fields produced by variations in the Earth's magnetic field that occur during ggeomagnetic g storms. GICs flowing in power transformers produce extra magnetic flux which cause transformer failures. Intense GIC levels can cause collapse of power systems. 12
