| Zusammenfassung |
| Major contributions by Japanese scientists in the period of 1945 to 1960 are
reviewed. This was the period when the foundation of the space weather
research was laid by ground-based observations and theoretical research.
Important contributions were made on such subjects as equatorial ionosphere
in quiet times, tidal wind system in the ionosphere, formation of the F2
layer, VLF propagation above the ionosphere, and precursory phenomena (type
IV radio outburst and polar cap absorption) to storms. At the IGY (1957,
1958), research efforts were intensified and new programs in space and
Antarctica were initiated. Japanese scientists in this discipline held a
tight network for communication and collaboration that has been kept to this
day. |
