TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the processes of the Sun-Earth interactions, the dynamic conditions within the magnetosphere, and the predictability of space weather effects on radio waves, satellites and ground-based technological systems today.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of energetic charged particles (including cosmic rays) on cloud formation and their effect on climate is examined, and it is considered that the cosmic ray-cloud cover hypothesis is not supported by presently available data and further investigations (during Forbush decreases and at other times) should be analyzed to further examine the hypothesis.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of solar variability parameters (solar flux (F10.7cm), cosmic ray flux, sunspot numbers) and meteorological parameters on convective rainfall and lightning flashes in four different Indian regions of equal area is studied.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of solar variability parameters and meteorological parameters on total lightning flashes and convective rain in two selected regions is studied, and the authors suggest that lightning flashes could be used as a measure of convective precipitation in isolated regions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) on terrestrial processes such as electrical phenomena, lightning discharges cloud formation and cloud coverage, temperature variation, space weather phenomena, Earth’s climate and effects of GCRs on human health are discussed.
