The Korea-Japan-China Mini-Workshop on Space Weather
Date: Monday, August 18. 2003, 9:00-17:00
Place: Toyokawa Shimin Plaza in Quality Hotel Toyokawa
Date: Tuesday, August 19-20. 2003, 9:00-17:00
Place: STEL 1F seminar room, Toyokawa
We had two Korea-Japan-China workshops on space weather both in Korea and
Japan in 2002. The purpose of the workshops is to provide a forum to present
the research progress on space weather between Korea, Japan and China, and
to enhance the cooperation among all of us in the research field of space
weather.
The third workshop was originally planned to be held in China in June or
August, 2003. However, we could not have the Beijing workshop because of
the SARS aftereffects. It was very regretted. In place of the Beijing
workshop, we had a mini-workshop at the Solar-Terrestrial Environment
Laboratory, Nagoya University in Toyokawa, Japan for August 18-20, 2003.
In this Toyokawa mini-workshop several topics on space weather projects,
high energy particles and radiation belts, sun and interplanetary distur
bances, sun-earth connection, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction,
magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, ionosphere-thermosphere coupling were
presented and discussed.
We will have another the Korea-Japan-China Mini-Workshop on Space Weather
to summarize the subject, "The response of the earth's magnetosphere and
ionosphere to the variations of the solar windand interplanetary magnetic
field" under the Joint Research project of The Japan-Korea Basic Scientific
CooperationProgram, in Korea in September, 2003.
