We are studying solar activities and Sun-Earth connection. For this, we use ground-based and space-based solar, interplanetary, and geomagnetic data including filtergram, imaging spectroscopy, polarimetry, and in-situ plasma data. Our main research subjects are : (1) solar eruption, (2) connection between solar events and geomagnetic storms, (3) forecast of solar high energy particle events, (4) application of machine learning to space weather forecast, and (5) relationship between space weather and global warming. They are very important in that they can allow us to understand the physical characteristic of these events as well as to minimize the space weather effect on artificial satellites and communication systems.
