GEM Modeling Challenge

The GEM community has recognized that due to the maturity and the increasing complexity of the state-of-the-art global space weather models, there is a great need for a systematic and quantitative evaluation of different GGCM modeling approaches. In summer 2008 the GGCM Metrics and Validation Focus Group initiated the GGCM modeling Challenge. The goals of the Challenge:

• Evaluate the current state of the space science models and track model improvements over time
• Facilitate interaction between research and operation communities
• Facilitate collaboration among modelers and data providers and research communities.
• Facilitate further model improvement.

The project focuses on various scientific and operational aspects of GGCM model performance and addresses challenges of model-data comparisons and metrics studies (e.g., model output and observational time series preparation for comparison, measurement uncertainty, metrics selection).
