I'm involved in the coordination, development and implementation of space weather services within the Met Office. I'm currently working on providing the European Space Agency with space weather forecasts, developing a roadmap for a future coupled Sun-to-Earth space weather forecasting system, and implementing forecasting models for solar energetic particle events.The Met Office has successfully won a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA) to provide space weather forecast services within a new Heliospheric Expert Service Centre. I'm involved with establishing the heliospheric forecast centre which will provide the latest real time satellite data on the current space weather conditions and solar wind model predictions, which will be used to support ESA's fleet of space missions.Also currently working on UK Space Agency funded Sol-Terra project, tasked with developing a roadmap for a future coupled Sun-to-Earth operational space weather forecasting system. The Sol-Terra roadmap will assess the current global space weather modelling capability and knowledge gaps, covering space weather scientific domains from the solar origin, solar wind, heliosphere, solar energetic particles, magnetosphere, ionosphere, thermosphere and terrestrial atmosphere.In 2016 I'll also be involved with another ESA project developing a proto-operational forecast system of thermospheric density. This will be used by satellite operators to forecast the impact on Low Earth Orbit satellite drag in response to space weather activity.
