Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Space weather is of rising importance both in scientific and social areas, and as the space weather observations expand to cover several tens of years, space climate research is of rising importance, too.
This Special Issue aims to collect theoretical, observational, numerical simulation and model validation papers. Potential topics include but are not limited to solar flare, sunspot and active region, solar energetic particles, coronal mass ejection, solar wind, geomagnetic storm and substorm, ionospheric irregularity and storm, space weather modeling and forecast, and model validation.
This Special Issue especially welcomes papers on long-term space climate research, as well as the possible impacts of space weather and space climate on weather and climate.
