Metrics-Based Evaluation and Science Based Validation of Space Physics Models at the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC)

社区协调建模中心（CCMC）是一个致力于空间天气建模和预测的跨部门中心。CCMC的目标之一是确定哪些空间天气模式适合用于业务空间天气预报。该项目将研究应应用于空间天气模型的各种指标和科学验证方法。CCMC工作人员将对空间天气事件进行直接的数据模型比较。它还将为计算不同空间天气模型的预测或临近预报指标提供一个独立、无偏见的论坛。除了计算指标和对模型进行一般科学验证外，CCMC还将探索模型在不同空间天气条件下的性能，以确定模型的使用极限。

The Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) is an interagency center devoted to space weather modeling and prediction. One of the goals of the CCMC is to determine which space weather models are appropriate for use in operational space weather forecasting. This project will examine the various metrics and scientific validation methods that should be applied to space weather models. The CCMC staff will perform direct data-model comparisons for space weather events. It will also provide an independent, unbiased forum for calculating the prediction or nowcasting metrics for different space weather models. In addition to the calculation of metrics and general scientific validation of models, the CCMC will explore the models performances under different space weather conditions to determine the limits under which the models can be used.
