Space Weather Resources
Space Weather studies the environmental dynamics of "geospace": the active
(and sometimes stormy) region above the Earth's lower atmosphere including the
ionosphere (which often reflects AM radio waves back to Earth) and the
magnetosphere (home of the Van Allen radiation belts and the environment of
many spacecraft -- including the numerous geosynchronous satellites used for
communications and other applications.) The following list gives active links
to information about space weather and associated fields of scientific
research.
If you have a link you would like to see added, or your find a broken link
which needs to be fixed, please e-mail
