Space Weather: Testing and Evaluation of Magnetohydrodynamic Simulation for Space Weather Prediction

该项目的目标是测试最先进的全球MHD代码在模拟一套五种一般空间天气条件方面的表现。这五个条件的选择是经过深思熟虑的，这样的模拟也将为了解这些条件背后的物理原理提供有用的见解。虽然GLOBAL MHD是唯一现实的大规模建模工具，但其理论局限性是众所周知的，目前需要进行此类测试来评估此类代码的实际预测能力。

The objective of the project is to test how well a state-of-the-art global MHD code does in simulating a suite of five generic space weather conditions. The five conditions are thoughtfully chosen such that the simulations will also provide useful insights into the physics behind the conditions. While global MHD is the only realistic large-scale modeling tool, its theoretical limitations are well known, and such tests are needed to estimate the practical predictive capability of such codes at present.
