This project is a companion to ATM-9901070 (PI: J. Birn). The two proposals taken together are designed to produce a computer model of the Earth's magnetotail and how the tail interacts with the inner magnetosphere. It will couple the tail-MHD computer code of Birn and Hesse with the Rice Convection Model and a magnetofriction code. The model will solve a closed set of partial differential equations which describe the magnetotail and the plasma sheet and their coupling to the inner magnetosphere and ionosphere. Ultimately this computer code will be used as a module for the Geospace General Circulation Model (GGCM), which is one of the primary goals of the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) program

本项目是ATM-9901070（PI：J. Birn）的配套项目。 这两个建议结合在一起，旨在产生一个地球磁尾的计算机模型，以及磁尾如何与内磁层相互作用。 它将把Birn和黑森的尾磁流体计算机程序与Rice对流模型和磁摩擦程序耦合起来。 该模型将求解一组封闭的偏微分方程，这些偏微分方程描述磁尾和等离子体片以及它们与内磁层和电离层的耦合。 最终，这一计算机代码将用作地球空间大气环流模型（GGCM）的一个模块，这是地球空间环境建模（GEM）计划的主要目标之一
