Space Weather (SW)
Journal Descriptions
Space Weather is a leading international peer-reviewed journal published by Wiley on behalf of the American Geophysical Union. Established in 2003, the journal focuses on the scientific study of space weather and its effects on technological systems and human activities. It publishes high-quality research on solar-terrestrial physics, including solar flares, coronal mass ejections, geomagnetic storms, and their interactions with Earth’s magnetosphere, ionosphere, and thermosphere. The journal emphasizes both fundamental science and applied research, particularly how space weather impacts satellites, communication networks, navigation systems, aviation, and electrical power grids. It also covers modeling, forecasting techniques, observational studies, and risk assessment of extreme space weather events. Space Weather serves as a multidisciplinary platform bringing together researchers from astrophysics, geophysics, plasma physics, and aerospace engineering. It plays a critical role in improving our understanding of space environment hazards and developing predictive capabilities for space weather events. The journal is widely indexed in major scientific databases such as Web of Science and Scopus and maintains a strong impact factor and global readership. With its rigorous peer-review process and strong editorial leadership under Editor-in-Chief Noé Lugaz, Space Weather is considered one of the key journals in heliophysics and space environment research.
