Committee on Solar and Space Physics

The committee provides oversight in the areas of solar and heliospheric physics, solar-terrestrial physics, magnetospheric physics, cosmic radiation, “space weather,” and more generally on studies in space plasma physics that can be conducted from space and ground-based activities in support of space-based efforts. In this capacity, CSSP monitors implementation of strategies and the formulation of assessments for NASA, NSF, NOAA, and other government agencies.
