Questions we can address:
What
are the primary characteristics that make a CME geoeffective? (WG2,4)
What
types of ICMEs are most geoeffective and why? (WG 2,4)
Can
we infer the magnetic field structure (Bz south) from
photospheric magnetograms? (WG4)
What
is the relationship between solar filaments and the ICME flux ropes?
What
is the best way to predict the intensity of geomagnetic storms?
Why
do some storms have no associated CMEs?
Questions
we may not be able to address:
Why
don't some Earth-directed CMEs cause storms?
- No weaker storms are included; we
have no control group.
What
is the missing physics in MHD (solar-IP) models and where do they need improvement?
- Appear to have limited expertise in this area (Dan
Spicer and Nick Arge who is only here Wed.)
