CCMC Mission Statement
The CCMC is a multi-agency partnership to enable, support and perform the research and development for next-generation space science and space weather models.
New Model Additions to the CCMC
Two additional models have recently been made available for Runs on request:
- GUMICS, a global solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling model (Pekka Janhunen et.al. at the Finnish Meteorological Institute).
- ANMHD model solving the three-dimensional system of magnetohydrodynamic equations in the anelastic approximation using a streamfunction formalism. (Bill Abbett, Dave Bercik, George Fisher at the UC Berkeley).
GEM Modeling Challenge
CCMC is supporting GEM 2008/2009 Modeling Challenge organized by the GGCM Metrics and Validation Focus Group. The Challenge results were presented and discussed at the GEM 2009 Summer Workshop in Snowmass.
CCMC Services
- We provide, to the scientific community, access to modern space research models
- We test and evaluate models
- We support Space Weather forecasters
- We support space science education
Latest Additions to the CCMC Services
- LWS Supported Tools and Methods
- Kameleon software: model output from different models can now be stored uniformly in a common science data format. Users can request the CDF-formatted output for a CCMC run.
- Movies on Request: you can now request to generate a movie, images and ASCII data files for each time step of a model run.
- CCMC Space Weather on Google Earth: CCMC is now providing space weather-related Google Earth overlays.
