STUDY OF A EUROPEAN SPACE WEATHER PROGRAMME

摘要

This paper summarises work on an ESA-funded study of a European space weather programme. We first outline the study methodology with an emphasis on the systems approach adopted and the importance of the underpinning scientific knowledge. We then present some key results emerging from this not-yet-completed study. The emphasis is to give the reader a flavour of those results, rather than a detailed justification.
