Pilot space weather platform (FONDEF IDEA)

Project led by Universidad Adventista de Chile, with USACH as partner institution (2025-2027). It develops a pilot system for real-time space weather monitoring and early warnings in Chile, with deep-learning forecasting models.

Magnetometry

Performance evaluation of magnetometers for geomagnetic monitoring, in collaboration with Universidad Adventista de Chile, and analysis of ground magnetometer network data to study geomagnetic disturbances and geomagnetically induced currents (GIC).
