Medium Range Thermosphere Ionosphere Storm Forecasts

CCMC is supporting the "Medium Range Thermosphere Ionosphere Storm Forecasts" effort within the NASA/NSF Partnership For Collaborative Space Weather Modeling.

PI institution: Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology
PI: Anthony J. Mannucci

Status of deliverables to the CCMC

• Coupled solar + heliospheric models at CCMC are being used to drive Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model (GITM) runs at JPL.
• Forecast variables (e.g., Total Electron Content) and related algorithms will be delivered to the CCMC.
