Contents:
An Overview of the Solar–Terrestrial Environment -- An Overview of the Solar–Terrestrial Environment -- The Sun -- The Solar Interior – Radial Structure, Rotation, Solar Activity Cycle -- Solar Atmosphere -- Solar Wind -- Coronal Mass Ejection -- Solar Radio Emissions -- The Earth -- Magnetosphere -- Ionosphere -- Thermosphere -- Space Plasmas -- Space Plasmas -- Magnetic Reconnection -- Nonlinear Processes in Space Plasmas -- Processes in the Solar-Terrestrial Environment -- The Aurora -- Geomagnetic Storms -- Substorms -- Ultra Low Frequency Waves in the Magnetosphere -- Space Weather -- Effects of the Solar Cycle on the Earth’s Atmosphere -- Planets and Comets in the Solar System -- Planetary Magnetospheres -- The Solar-Comet Interactions.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: The Handbook of the Solar-Terrestrial Environment is a unique compendium. Recognized international leaders in their field contribute chapters on basic topics of solar physics, space plasmas and the Earth's magnetosphere, and on applied topics like the aurora, magnetospheric storms, space weather, space climatology and planetary science. This book will be of highest value as a reference for researchers working in the area of planetary and space science. However, it is also written in a style accessible to graduate students majoring in those fields.
