Abstract

The object of research is the methods for monitoring and forecasting strong space weather disturbances affecting the radiation environment and radio communication during air travels. The monitoring techniques used by the existing space weather centers are analyzed: the U.S. Center, the PECASUS consortium (Great Britain, Finland, Germany, Poland, Austria, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Cyprus, and South Africa), the AJCF consortium (Australia, Japan, Canada, France), and the Russian-Chinese space weather consortium.
