摘要: We present the first global, self-consistent, fully electrically coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere model, based on UCLA magnetosphere-ionosphere model and NOAA Coupled Thermosphere Ionosphere Model (CTIM). Initial results from this for January 10, 1997 geomagnetic storm event are encouraging. In particular, produces a much more realistic electrodynamic ionospheric response as compared with previous magnetosphere that relied parameterizations conductance. This is attributed to conductance calculations provided by CTIM. Like in studies cross-polar-cap potential too high. Examining cause will require further investigation.
