Introduction:

Great Helio Storms are time periods with a series of powerful solar storms including extreme solar flares, fast Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) and significant impact on Geospace environment and other location in Heliosphere. Helio Storms include multiple heliosphysics phenomena including solar flairs, radio bursts, solar energetic particle events, geomagnetic storms, atmosphere expansion, ionosphere variability, and more. To understand the flow of space weather process from origin at the Sun to impact on geospace and critical infrastructure there is a need for system science approach.

Objectives:

Team objective is to build  an online Portal to facilitate community-wide comparative studies of Great Helio Storms. The Portal aims to facilitate open collaborations and to serve as a hub for all information connecting the various aspects of the Great Helio Storms from solar surface to impact at Earth and other locations in heliosphere. The Portal will include a living database continuously populated by the community. The database will incorporate interactive listings of publications, presentations, links to simulation outputs, observation data, and interpretations (heliostories) from a broad range of sources.  The CCMC will build and maintain infrastructure for the Portal. We will start building upon available tools and assets. For example, CCMC tools for space weather analysis (including Integrated Space Weather Analysis – ISWA system and Database of Notifications, Knowledge Information – DONKI) will be continuously upgraded to enable tailored layouts and listings for specific time periods and other features needed for the Portal.
