Invited talk presented at Space Weather Education Center on 2023-06-14

Abstract: This is a course which is intended as an entry course on space weather, ionospheric weather and its impacts. It provides an elementary overview over the relevant aspects of space weather without invoking complicated background physics. The third day will take the form of a stakeholders working meeting. We will bring together Radio research, GNSS and ionospheric research, Space Weather Services and BKG activities. The content focuses on Space Weather and the effects on man-made infrastructure and its functionality. We discuss solar eruptions of very high-energy matter and electromagnetic radiation which inject massive amounts of energy in the Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere leading to pronounced impact on navigation, communication and energy transport. Participants are expected to have a basic understanding of waves, particles, vectors, scalar and vector fields, ...
