The Dynamic Loss of Earth's Radiation Belts: From Loss in the
Magnetosphere to Particle Precipitation in the Atmosphere presents
a timely review of data from various explorative missions,
including the Van Allen Probes, the Magnetospheric Multiscale
Mission (which aims to determine magnetopause losses), the
completion of four BARREL balloon campaigns, and several CubeSat
missions focusing on precipitation losses. This is the first book
in the area to include a focus on loss, and not just acceleration
and radial transport. Bringing together two communities, the book
includes contributions from experts with knowledge in both
precipitation mechanisms and the effects on the atmosphere. There
is a direct link between what gets lost in the magnetospheric
radiation environment and the energy deposited in the layers of our
atmosphere. Very recently, NASA's Living With a Star program
identified a new, targeted research topic that addresses this
question, highlighting the timeliness of this precise science. The
Dynamic Loss of Earth's Radiation Belts brings together scientists
from the space and atmospheric science communities to examine both
the causes and effects of particle loss in the magnetosphere.
