Sentences with phrase «predict space weather»

Today a new challenge for the research of solar - terrestrial physics is to support the attempts to predict space weather.

Since this anomaly is hazardous to satellites and spacecraft, and it is dynamic, South Georgia is an ideal location to observe changes in the Earth's magnetic field and monitor and even predict space weather, while also providing key insights into understanding the Earth system.

«We hope to predict space weather based on studies of what's beneath the surface.»

In a quest to better predict space weather, the Dartmouth researchers study the radiation belts from above and below in complementary approaches — through satellites (the twin NASA Van Allen Probes) high over Earth and through dozens of instrument - laden balloons (BARREL, or Balloon Array for Radiation belt Relativistic Electron Losses) at lower altitudes to assess the particles that rain down.

In the long run, much of the economic growth of developed economies is likely to involve less energy - intensive sectors because of demand - side factors such as 1) the amount of stuff people can physically manage is limited (even with rented storage space), 2) migration to areas where the weather is more moderate will continue, 3) increased urbanization and population density reduces energy consumption per capita, 4) there is a lot of running room to decrease the energy consumption of our electronic devices (e.g., switching to clockless microprocessors, not that I'm predicting that specific innovation), 5) telecommunication will substitute for transportation on the margin, 6) cheaper and better data acquisition and processing will enable less wasteful routing and warehousing of material goods, and 7) aging populations will eventually reduce the total amount (local plus distant) of travel per person per year.

«It is unfortunate that these government agencies both claim to be scientific, with one responsible for the U.S. civilian space program (NASA), and the other claims its mission is «to understand and predict changes in climate, weather, oceans, and coasts» (NOAA), ignore the finest scientific temperature data available,» the SEPP chief continued.

The standard argument that we can predict climate better than weather is certainly based on some kind of ergodicity, perhaps not for the full phase space but for a fraction of it at the minimum.

The ONLY way to predict weather and climate changes is to have millions upon millions of data collecting bots in the air, on the surface, in the sea and also in space, that are all networked together and sending petabytes of data to extremely powerful networked servers to crunch through that data in real time to make predictions.
