Abstract: | Recent progress in space weather research are briefly presented here from three aspects: establishment or improvement in observation
systems, such as extra-soft X-ray detector and γ-ray detector onboard the spacecraft ‘Shen Zhou 2’, new solar radio broad-band
spectrometer, magnetometer-chain, ionosonde and digisonde–chain, laser-lidar system and VHF radar; partial topic progresses
included in CMEs, multi-streamer structures, evolution of interplanetary magnetic field B
z component, regional properties of traveling ionospheric disturbances, a fully-nonlinear global dynamical model for the middle
and upper atmosphere, and a combined prediction method for geomagnetic disturbances; and space weather activity, such as ‘Meridian
Project’ — a national major scientific project, ‘International Space Weather Meridian Circle Program’ — a suggestion of internationalization
of ‘Meridian Project’, ‘Space Weather Research Plan’ — a major research plan from National Natural Science Foundation of China
(NNSFC) and other space weather activities.
