Magnetospheric substorm research using VLF/ELF radiowave observations at Casey

Project information

CLILVERD, Dr Mark

Casey

Project aim

Huge amounts of energy from the solar wind (the Suns expanding atmosphere), are stored in the magnetosphere (Earths outer atmosphere), and released in geomagnetic storms that affect space and ground engineering systems (power systems, communications satellites, etc.). VLF radiowave observations at Casey will help us understand a fundamental sub-process: the substorm.
