Are There Grand Challenges in Space Weather?
Editor of Space Weather and a distinguished research professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, in Newark
The identification of grand challenges can be a powerful tool for encouraging concerted efforts toward important goals, whether in research or other endeavors. For example, the National Science and Technology Council [2005] report entitled “Grand challenges for disaster reduction” targeted the handling and mitigating of natural hazards on Earth. Are there grand challenges in understanding the natural hazards of space weather, the solutions to which would transform forecasting, prediction, or systems design? Would specifically identifying several such challenges foster focused and transformational research that would arrive at solutions more quickly?
