Session - Space Weather Challenges for Resource Exploitation
Magnar G. Johnsen, Knut Stanley Jacobsen
Space Weather affects resource exploitation operations at all latitudes. However, in particular, as previously unavailable high latitude regions of Earth gets accessible owing to changes in the climate, resource exploitation operations will become more common in and close to the auroral zone. For instance geomagnetic surveying and geomagnetic navigation during horizontal drilling sees challenges caused by frequent and large disturbances in the geomagnetic field caused by auroral electrojets in the high latitude ionosphere. Also any operation dependent on precision satellite navigation is affected owing to large and time-dependent, horizontal gradients and irregularities in the electron density associated with auroral precipitation and polar cap patches and blobs. This session addresses the scientific background of ionospheric/space weather effects on resource exploitation operations as well as how these effects poses challenges for operators. Furthermore, how these challenges are approached and solved will be addressed.
