Our Sun is the nearest star and thus an ideal laboratory to study
dynamic processes which are related to solar terrestrial physics.
The topics addressed in this book cover solar MHD and generation of
acoustic waves, as well as physical parameters that are suited to
describing solar activity and could serve as proxies for space
weather forecasting. The influence of solar activity (radiation and
solar wind) on telecommunication systems, satellite missions etc.
is also discussed. In short, contribution reports are given on
various topics in solar physics. The book covers solar physics from
the photosphere to space weather influences. The intended level of
readership is aimed at students working in this or related fields,
professionals, and astronomers who wish to acquire some basic
knowledge in the field of solar terrestrial relations, which is
provided in the review articles.

This book provides an in-depth review of all aspects of space
weather. Written by world-leading experts, these sixteen review
papers cover everything from space weather's origin on the Sun and
its propagation in interplanetary space to its impact on the Earth
and other solar system bodies. The history of space weather and
even events with anthropogenic origin are also covered. Thus, the
volume serves as both a comprehensive reference for researchers and
a starting point for graduate students. Originally published in
Space Science Reviews in the Topical Collection "The Scientific
Foundation of Space Weather"
