TIEGCM2.0 Benchmark Runs: Selected Results

Benchmark runs are provided in three groups:

  • Full-year Climatology (solar min,max)
  • Seasonal (Equinox, Solstice, solar min,max)
  • Solar Storm Events (heelis_gpi, weimer_imf)

Note

Climatology and Seasonal runs were made with constant solar conditions as follows:

  • Solar Minimum Conditions:

    POWER = 18.
    CTPOTEN = 30.
    F107 = 70.
    F107A = 70.
  • Solar Maximum Conditions:

    POWER = 40.
    CTPOTEN = 60.
    F107 = 200.
    F107A = 200.

Note

All links are to multi-frame pdf plot files, as follows:

utvert

UT time (daily or hourly) vs Zp pressure

utlat

UT time (daily or hourly) vs Latitude

singleut

Instantaneous global maps and latitude and longitude slices

Note

These fields are plotted:
TN , UN , VN , WN , HE , NE , TE , TI , HMF2 , NMF2 , POTEN , Z

Full-year Climatologies (Solar min,max)

  • 5.0-degree model resolution:
  • 2.5-degree model resolution:
