ST-ECS Networking Campfire: “How to Mentor”

Ezgi Gülay March 5, 2026

In academia, success is often measured with quantifiable outputs such as publications, grants, and awards. On the other hand, the challenging road leading to this success is not something discussed openly. The relationship we build with our colleagues, the support and guidance we receive from mentors and supervisors are important factors affecting our success as individuals and as a community.

1. Introduction Space weather is significantly affected by geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs) that occur during or after intense solar events such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which expel substantial amounts of electromagnetic particles into interplanetary space. Most of these particles collide with the magnetosphere (the outermost region of the atmosphere) where the solar wind (continuous flow ...[Read More]
