The Michigan Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF)

The Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) developed at the University of MIchigan has been used to model a wide variety of space environments. It is especially well suited to space weather modeling and can follow the complete system from CME initiation to interaction with the upper atmosphere at Earth. A graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed to facilitate setup, execution, and visualization of model runs. This GUI has been enhanced to allow more complete visualization and model result analysis, including comparisons with data. Examples will be shown of the SWMF use through the GUI for a variety of space weather events.
