Solar Flares & Coronal Mass Ejections: Advanced Connections

Solar flares and coronal mass ejections are major releases of energy from magnetically active regions on the Sun. Monitoring flares and CMEs helps forecast radiation hazards, satellite anomalies, radio disruptions, auroral activity, and geomagnetic storms.
