报告内容：

National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) have a long history of space weather activities. Solar radio has been continuously observed at Hiraiso observatory since 1952, and at the Ionosphere observatory since 1957, known as the International Geophysical Year (IGY).  NICT started its space weather forecast routine work since 1988.

The significant differences between the space and usual weather forecast is that the observing points for space weather are sparse compared with usual weather observing points; and more than that, many space weather mechanisms remains unknown. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a simulation code to compensate for the former issue, and an empirical model for the latter.

The lecture focuses on:

(1) forecast of high-energy particle distribution along the geostational orbit,

(2) forecast of ionospheric perturbation for precise satellite positioning.

NICT has so far developed observation techniques, empirical models and numerical simulation codes to achieve these goals.

报告人简介:

Dr. Mamoru Ishii graduated from Kyoto University in 1993. He was a visiting scientist in Max-Plank Institute of Aeronomie, Germany from 1993-1994, and joined Communications Research Laboratory (now NICT) in 1994. From 1998 to1999, he stayed in University of Alaska Fairbanks as a cooperative scientist. From 2012 until now, he worked as the Director of Space Weather and Environment Informatics Laboratory, NICT. His major areas of study is dynamic in the ionosphere/thermosphere.
