The Aurora Geomagnetic Storm looks beautiful, but the damage is huge

Mondo Science Updated on 2024-01-19

According to CCTV News, on the evening of December 1, the aurora appeared in Mohe, Tahe and other places in the Daxinganling area of Heilongjiang Province, and many local residents and tourists photographed this beautiful scenery. It is understood that the occurrence of auroras in the Daxinganling area of Heilongjiang Province is due to geomagnetic storm activity.

The development of geomagnetic storms can generally be divided into three stages: the initial phase stage, when the geomagnetic field begins to disturb, which may be accompanied by the appearance of auroras;During the main phase phase, geomagnetic storms are most active, and the magnetic field strength changes rapidly, which may lead to the failure of the navigation system and the interruption of communicationIn the phase recovery phase, the geomagnetic field gradually returns to its normal state, but the entire process can last several days or even longer.

A geodetic magnetic storm is a phenomenon in which the Earth's magnetic field is disturbed by an external disturbance, resulting in a drastic change in the Earth's magnetic field lines. There have been many severe geomagnetic storms in history. Here are a few of the famous cases:

1.On March 13, 1989, a geomagnetic storm occurred in the Quebec region of Canada, which paralyzed the power grid of the entire region, causing massive economic losses and social impacts. Much of the area was without power for hours, and public facilities such as traffic lights, banks, and shops were out of service.

2.On July 9, 1990, a geomagnetic storm struck Europe and North America that lasted for several days. The magnetic storm caused a large number of spacecraft and satellite failures, flight delays and cancellations, disruptions to maritime communications, and power failures. The magnetic storm reportedly caused millions of dollars in economic damage.

3.On March 18, 2003, a geomagnetic storm struck the Earth. The storm lasted for several hours, causing problems such as satellite communications outages, power failures, flight delays and cancellations. The magnetic storm reportedly caused tens of millions of dollars in economic damage.

These cases show that the impact of geomagnetic storms on human society is enormous. Therefore, scientists have been studying the causes and methods of geomagnetic storms in order to better prevent and respond to the disasters they may bring.

There is also an opinion that the auroral geomagnetic storm warning is related to climate change.

There is indeed a correlation between auroral geomagnetic storm warnings and climate change. First of all, we know that the Earth's magnetic field is generated by the liquid outer core of the Earth's interior, and this magnetic field is one of the important conditions for the existence of life on Earth. When external factors such as solar storms have an impact on the Earth's magnetic field, an auroral geomagnetic storm warning will be triggered.

In fact, the impact of external factors such as solar storms on the Earth's climate has been studied for a long time. Energetic particles from solar storms can enter the Earth's magnetosphere and affect the climate system in the atmosphere. For example, solar storms may cause phenomena such as melting glaciers and rising sea levels in the polar regions, which in turn can have an impact on the global climate. In addition, solar storms can also trigger a large number of volcanic eruptions and natural disasters such as **, which can also have some impact on the climate. Therefore, I believe that there is a certain correlation between the auroral geomagnetic storm warning and climate change. In future research, we need to dig deeper into the mechanisms and impacts of this association in order to better respond to and respond to possible natural disasters.

In front of the natural interface, humans appear small and insignificant. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't compete with it. The power and energy of nature, its grandeur and vastness, make human beings seem insignificant. The rotation and revolution of the earth, the change of seasons, the birth, aging, sickness and death of living beings are all natural laws that cannot be changed by human beings, even if we have advanced technology.

However, we can delve into and explore nature, decipher its mysteries and laws, and contribute to the well-being of mankind. In fact, the phenomenon of geomagnetic explosion can also provide valuable scientific data for space weather research, monitoring and early warning, and space exploration. We should look at the universe on which we live with reverence and live in harmony with nature in order to truly realize our value and meaning. AI assistant creation season
