This project will develop and validate a community-based whole magnetosphere model that simulates the interaction of the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field with the near-Earth space environment. The model will extend from 100km above the Earth's surface to outside of the magnetospheric bow shock. The Community-based Whole Magnetosphere Model (CWMM) will model the magnetic and electric fields, neutral and plasma composition, pressure, and velocities, and energetic particle environment. Data assimilation will be used to make the model more consistent with the data. To achieve this goal, models of individual regions developed by various teams in the space sciences community will be used as components in the CWMM. The models will be coupled together using the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF). The resulting coupled model will be made available to the space science and space weather communities through the Community Coordinated Modeling Center. A rigorous validation process will quantify how the accuracy of the model changes as more components are added. The project will move the coupled model toward operational status for use by the Air Force Weather Agency and NOAA's Space Environment Center (SEC). Results from this project will also be used in the Space Weather curriculum that is being developed at the University of Michigan. This project is jointly funded by NASA and NSF.

该项目将开发并验证基于社区的全磁层模型，模拟太阳风和行星际磁场与近地空间环境的相互作用。该模型将从地球表面上方 100 公里处延伸到磁层弓形激波之外。基于社区的全磁层模型 (CWMM) 将模拟磁场和电场、中性和等离子体成分、压力和速度以及高能粒子环境。将使用数据同化使模型与数据更加一致。为了实现这一目标，空间科学界各个团队开发的各个区域的模型将被用作 CWMM 的组件。这些模型将使用空间天气建模框架（SWMF）耦合在一起。由此产生的耦合模型将通过社区协调建模中心提供给空间科学和空间天气社区。严格的验证过程将量化随着更多组件的添加，模型的准确性如何变化。该项目将使耦合模型进入运行状态，供空军气象局和 NOAA 太空环境中心 (SEC) 使用。该项目的结果也将用于密歇根大学正在开发的空间天气课程。 该项目由 NASA 和 NSF 联合资助。
