Workshop: Roadmap for Reliable Ensemble Forecasting of the Sun-Earth System; NJIT, March, 2018

这个为期一年的项目是为了使太阳数据提供者，太阳现象的专家建模者和来自美国的计算机科学家能够参与将于2018年3月在新泽西理工学院举行的太阳-地球系统可靠包围预测研讨会的路线图。 这个专门的研讨会旨在制定一个研究路线图，该路线图将针对太阳观测和建模与新时代计算机研究紧密结合的巨大科学挑战，以从大量数据中发现新的基础知识，同时刺激计算机科学与新的研究挑战。 讲习班将提供来自太阳能和计算机科学界的共识反馈，这将有助于确定科学优先事项和研究方向，并促进未来两个领域之间的跨学科合作。太阳能数据的挑战和切割-本次研讨会期间确定的数据处理和分析的计算机科学方法将推动后续活动，旨在实施新型网络基础设施解决方案并刺激跨学科研究 该研讨会旨在促进发现和理解，同时促进跨学科环境中的教育和协作工作，这将直接影响参与者的职业生涯。 这些活动将促进创新的数据分析，数据可视化，数据驱动建模和数据分析转移到其他研究领域，这些领域可能受益于类似的框架和解决问题的方法。 讲习班涵盖既基本又及时的科学专题：这些专题不仅涉及发现新知识这一基本目标，而且涉及实际应用这些知识减轻太阳活动对近地空间环境的影响。 此外，它还直接涉及《国家空间气象行动计划》的目标5，即“通过增进了解和预报改进空间气象服务”，其目的是为可靠的日地系统集合预报制定路线图。 该路线图将在研讨会网站上公布。

This 1-year project is to enable the participation of solar data providers, expert modelers of solar phenomena, and computer scientists from the US at the Roadmap for Reliable Ensemble Forecasting of the Sun-Earth System workshop, which will be held at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in March of 2018. This dedicated workshop is intended to lay down a research roadmap that will target the great science challenge of tightly coupling the solar observations and modeling with new-age computer research to discover new fundamental knowledge from big volumes of data, while stimulating computer science with new research challenges. The workshop will provide consensus feedback from the solar and computer science communities, which will help establish scientific priorities and research directions, and also promote future transdisciplinary collaborations between both fields.The solar data challenges and cutting-age computer science approaches to data processing and analysis identified during this workshop will drive subsequent activities aiming to implement novel cyberinfrastructure solutions and stimulate transdisciplinary research. The workshop is aimed at advancing discovery and understanding, while promoting education and collaborative work in transdisciplinary environments, which will directly impact the participants' careers. Such activities will facilitate the transfer of innovative data analysis, data visualization, data driven modeling, and data analytics to other fields of research that may benefit from similar frameworks and approaches to problems solving. The workshop covers scientific topics that are both fundamental and timely: they address not only the basic goal of discovering new knowledge, but also the practical application of that knowledge to mitigate impacts of solar activity on the near-Earth space environment.  Furthermore, it directly addresses Goal 5 of National Space Weather Action Plan, namely "improve space-weather services through advancing understanding and forecasting," by aiming to develop a roadmap for reliable ensemble forecasting of the Sun-Earth system. The roadmap will be made publicly available online on the workshop website.
