Space Weather: The Role of Solar Radio Monitoring in Malaysia and Implications of Sun Activities to the Earth
Journal Title: International Journal of Fundamental Physical Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Space weather is very synonymous with the activities of our nearest star, the Sun. Recently; the space weather program has stimulated interest in this issue. The main reason is due to the extreme climate change and towards to the solar maximum at the beginning of 2013. It is believed that the Earth environment has a close connection with Sun activities, such as solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). However, to prove it is not an easy way. The dynamism of the Sun also still is not easy to be understood. To improve our understanding of the solar activities, a new experimental approach by 24 hours monitoring has been done since 2007 by the e-CALLISTO network. This work is a part of International of Space Weather Initiative Program (ISWI). As one of the equatorial country, Malaysia also could contribute in terms of a consistent 12 hours monitoring and one of the earliest sites that observe the Sun every day. Here, we will highlight the role of our site, mechanism, and implications of Sun activities to the Earth. It is hoped to meet the current knowledge about the Sun with this new method of experimental approach.
