Postdoc
University of Helsinki, Finland

Observing and studying one of the major transient events, coronal mass ejections (CMEs) causing space weather. Specifically, studying and analysing solar origin of CMEs, their evolution in heliosphere, and assessing  effects of CME interaction with surroundings using in-situ observations including  recently launched spacecrafts like Parker Solar Probe, BepiColombo and Solar Orbiter, while CMEs propagate through interplanetary medium. To predict CME geoeffectiveness by completely constraining analytical model with remote observations.
