This project is a 2-year project to integrate models of the ionosphere, magnetosphere, solar wind and solar corona. The first stage will be to couple MHD models of the corona and solar wind. This will allow the study of small scale solar wind effects that drive much of space weather. The second step will be to couple a global MHD model of the magnetosphere with the Rice Convection model of the inner magnetosphere. The third project will link a global ionosphere/thermosphere model with a model of the equatorial region that simulates the important instabilities that give rise to strong radio scintillation effects. The project will be a prototype for a large, longer term, center-style effort.

该项目是一个为期两年的项目，旨在整合电离层、磁层、太阳风和日冕的模型。第一阶段将是耦合日冕和太阳风的MHD模型。这将允许研究驱动大部分空间天气的小尺度太阳风效应。第二步是将磁层的全球MHD模型与内磁层的Rice对流模型耦合起来。第三个项目将把一个全球电离层/热层模型与一个赤道区域模型联系起来，该模型模拟引起强烈无线电闪烁效应的重要不稳定性。该项目将是一个大型的，长期的，中心式的努力的原型。
