This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the physical phenomena that result from the interaction of the Sun and the planets. The first part of the book summarizes fundamental elements of transport theory relevant for the atmosphere, ionosphere and the magnetosphere. This theory is then applied to physical phenomena in the space environment.
