Space Weather Modeling Framework: A new tool for the space science community
Gabor Toth,Igor V. Sokolov,Tamas I. Gombosi,David Chesney,C. Robert Clauer,D. L. De Zeeuw,Kenneth C. Hansen,K. Kane,Ward B. Manchester,R. C. Oehmke,Kenneth G. Powell,Aaron J. Ridley,Ilia I. Roussev,Quentin F. Stout,O. Volberg,Richard A. Wolf,Stanislav Sazykin,Anthony A. Chan,Bin Yu,József Kóta +19 more
TL;DR: The Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) as discussed by the authors provides a high-performance flexible framework for physics-based space weather simulations, as well as for various space physics applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Global Ionosphere-Thermosphere Model
TL;DR: The Global Ionosphere-thermosphere model (GITM) as mentioned in this paper uses a three-dimensional spherical grid that can be stretched in both latitude and altitude, while having a fixed resolution in longitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionospheric control of the magnetosphere: conductance
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the nonlinear relationship between the ionospheric conductivity and the global state of the magnetosphere and find that the steady-state magnetosphere acts neither as a current nor as a voltage generator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling a space weather event from the Sun to the Earth: CME generation and interplanetary propagation
Ward B. Manchester,Tamas I. Gombosi,Ilia I. Roussev,Aaron J. Ridley,D. L. De Zeeuw,Igor V. Sokolov,Kenneth G. Powell,Gabor Toth,Gabor Toth +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D numerical ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) model is presented to describe the time-dependent expulsion of a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the solar corona propagating to 1 astronomical unit (AU) using the Block Adaptive Tree Solar-Wind Roe Upwind Scheme (BATS-RUS) code.
Journal ArticleDOI
New Ocean Winds Satellite Mission to Probe Hurricanes and Tropical Convection
