Preparing for the Next Carrington: Spatiotemporal Agent-Based Modeling for Safeguarding Satellite Infrastructure Under Extreme Space Weather Disturbances
Rushil Kukreja, Edward J. Oughton, Phillip M. Cunio +1
Extreme space weather poses an existential threat to modern satellite infrastructure, with a Carrington-class solar storm projected to cause economic losses of billions of dollars…
Assessing the economic benefits of space weather mitigation investment decisions: Evidence from Aotearoa New Zealand
Edward J. Oughton, Andrew Renton, Daniel Mac Marnus +2
Space weather events pose a growing threat to modern economies, yet their macroeconomic consequences remain underexplored. This study presents the first dedicated economic assessme…
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Poised to Rocket: Modeling the Environmental Impact of LEO Satellite Constellations
Rushil Kukreja, Edward J. Oughton, Richard Linares
The proliferation of satellite megaconstellations in low Earth orbit (LEO) represents a significant advancement in global broadband connectivity. However, we urgently need to under…
Major Space Weather Risks Identified via Coupled Physics-Engineering-Economic Modeling
Edward J. Oughton, Dennies K. Bor, Robert Weigel +5
Space weather poses an important but under-quantified threat to society. While severe geomagnetic storms are recognized as potential global catastrophes, their socio-economic impac…
A Reproducible Method for Mapping Electricity Transmission Infrastructure for Space Weather Risk Assessment
Dennies K. Bor, Edward J. Oughton, Evan A. Peters +4
Space weather risk assessment is constrained by the lack of available asset information needed to model geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in electricity transmission infrastr…
