International Reference Ionosphere 2016: From ionospheric climate to real‐time weather predictions

D. Bilitza, David Altadill, Vladimír Truhlík et al. · 1 Feb 2017

Abstract The paper presents the latest version of the International Reference Ionosphere model (IRI‐2016) describing the most important changes and improvements that were included with this version and discussing their impact on the IRI predictions of ionospheric parameters. IRI‐2016 includes two new model options for the F 2 peak height h m F 2 and…

GPS and ionospheric scintillations

P. M. Kintner, B. M. Ledvina, E. R. de Paula · 1 Sep 2007

Ionospheric scintillations are one of the earliest known effects of space weather. Caused by ionization density irregularities, scintillating signals change phase unexpectedly and vary rapidly in amplitude. GPS signals are vulnerable to ionospheric irregularities and scintillate with amplitude variations exceeding 20 dB. GPS is a weak signal system and scintillations can interrupt or degrade GPS…

The 10.7 cm solar radio flux ( <i>F</i> <sub>10.7</sub> )

K. F. Tapping · 14 Jun 2013

The 10.7 cm solar radio flux, or F 10.7 is, along with sunspot number, one of the most widely used indices of solar activity. This paper describes the equipment and procedures used to make the measurements and to calibrate them, and discusses some of the “most‐asked” questions about the data.

The Geomagnetic <i>Kp</i> Index and Derived Indices of Geomagnetic Activity

Jürgen Matzka, Claudia Stolle, Yosuke Yamazaki et al. · 13 Mar 2021

Abstract The geomagnetic Kp index is one of the most extensively used indices of geomagnetic activity, both for scientific and operational purposes. This article reviews the properties of the Kp index and provides a reference for users of the Kp index and associated data products as derived and distributed by the GFZ German Research Centre…

The Challenge of Machine Learning in Space Weather: Nowcasting and Forecasting

Enrico Camporeale · 4 Jul 2019

Abstract The numerous recent breakthroughs in machine learning make imperative to carefully ponder how the scientific community can benefit from a technology that, although not necessarily new, is today living its golden age. This Grand Challenge review paper is focused on the present and future role of machine learning in Space Weather. The purpose is…

Space Weather template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Space Weather format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Space Weather template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official AGU (American Geophysical Union) format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Space Weather use?
Space Weather uses Author–year (APA) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B., & Lee, C. (2023). A representative article title. Space Weather, 12(3), 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Space Weather?
No. DocuGuru generates the agujournal2025 LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a AGU (American Geophysical Union)-ready Space Weather document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Space Weather template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Space Weather format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
What is Space Weather?
AGU journal. It is a earth and environmental sciences journal, published by AGU (American Geophysical Union).
Can I export a submission-ready Space Weather PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Space Weather template (the agujournal2025 class) that is ready to submit to AGU (American Geophysical Union), together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Space Weather template cost?
You can start writing in the Space Weather template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Space Weather PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
