GEM: An Ionospheric Module for the GEM GGCM

该项目的目的是实施一个计算模块，旨在提供一种将电离层-磁层耦合引入地球空间全球环流模式的机制。PI将建立在工作站级计算机而不是超级计算机上实施TIMEGCM模型(热层-电离层-介孔电动力学大气环流模型)方面的最新进展。电离层与磁层的耦合是GGCM的重要组成部分。作为全球全球监测和监测第一阶段的一部分，PI将根据全球全球监测和监测指导委员会在第一阶段所要求的选定一组条件的MHD结果运行TIMEGCM模型。结果将提供给空间物理界基于WWW的应用程序。

The purpose of this project is to implement a computational module designed to provide a mechanism for introducing ionosphere-magnetosphere coupling to the Geospace Global Circulation Model (GGC). The PI will build on recent developments in implementing the TIMEGCM model (Thermosphere-ionosphere-mesophere electrodynamic general circulation model) on a workstation class computer as opposed to supercomputers. The ionospheric coupling to the magnetosphere is a very important part of the GGCM. As part of Phase 1 of the GGCM, the PI will run the TIMEGCM model with inputs from the MHD results for the selected set of conditions required by the GGCM steering committee for Phase 1. The results will be made available to the space physics community WWW-based applications.
