This award will incorporate Ionospheric, Thermospheric and Mesopheric (ITM) models into the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center. The CCMC will then provide the research community access to these models via new online interfaces, and transfer validated versions of the ITM models to US space weather operational agencies after suitable testing and evaluation have been performed. For this purpose, CCMC intends to hire a new staff member to be supported by the present proposal. CCMC staff will also work with developers of ITM models, and will adapt these models to run on CCMC's in-house computing resources. CCMC will evaluate the performance of the ITM models and will work to increase model performance where desirable and possible, which will include coupling models of varying domains and physical scales. After models have been evaluated for scientific validity and numerical stability, and their performance assessed through metrics-based studies, they will be considered for transfer to operational agencies in the federal government. CCMC has established a new path for this process. Thus, the ITM models, used by US operational agencies, will be greatly enhanced by the proposed program of work.The CCMC is a multi-agency effort established and overseen by NSF, NASA, NOAA, and the Department of Defense. In addition to helping transition to operations, the center also participate in educational programs designed for students and operational forecasters.

该合同将把电离层、热层和中间层（ITM）模型纳入美国国家航空航天局（NASA）戈达德太空飞行中心的社区协调建模中心（CCMC）。然后，CCMC将通过新的在线接口向研究界提供对这些模型的访问，并在进行适当的测试和评估后，将ITM模型的验证版本传输给美国空间天气业务机构。为此目的，方案协调会打算雇用一名新的工作人员，以得到本提案的支持。CCMC工作人员还将与ITM模型的开发人员合作，并将使这些模型在CCMC的内部计算资源上运行。CCMC将评估ITM模型的性能，并将努力在需要和可能的地方提高模型的性能，这将包括不同领域和物理尺度的耦合模型。在评估了模型的科学有效性和数值稳定性，并通过基于度量的研究评估了它们的性能之后，它们将被考虑转移到联邦政府的业务机构。CCMC为这一进程开辟了一条新的路径。因此，拟议的工作方案将大大加强美国业务机构使用的信息技术管理模式。CCMC是由NSF、NASA、NOAA和国防部建立和监督的多机构合作项目。除了帮助过渡到业务，该中心还参与为学生和业务预报员设计的教育项目。
