Solar and Heliospheric Models at the CCMC - An Update
Abstract
The Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is the world largest repository of models dedicated to Space Weather Research and forecasting. In this presentation we provide an update on new additions and updates to the CCMC's inventory of Solar and Heliospheric models. In particular, we describe the latest version of WSA, the CORHEL TDM model, and the CGEM model suite. The latest version of WSA is now available to users through our Runs-On-Request websites as well as through its continuous near realtime execution. It can use input magnetograms from an extensive list of observatories, including maps processed using the ADAPT surface flux evolution model, and can return results and solar wind forecasts at all inner planets and most inner heliospheric spacecraft locations. The CORHEL TDM model enables users to design flux ropes embedded in coronal fields in derived from observed magnetograms, and then follow the evolution of the flux rope using a zero-beta MHD code. A future upgrade (currently in development at PredSci) w ill support full thermodynamic CME simulations. Finally, the CGEM model suite supports the generation and application of boundary conditions for realistic driving of coronal 3D field models based on times series observations of photospheric vector magnetogram data.
