For Space Plasmas: Sun-to-earth Simulations
are increasingly essential to basic and applied space-physics research for two primary reasons. First, the heliosphere and magnetosphere are vast regions of space from which we have relatively few in situ measurements. Numerical simulations let us “stitch together” observations from different regions and provide data-interpretation insight to help us understand this complex system’s global beha...
متن کاملBringing the Sun Down to Earth
The sun is often portrayed as a “laboratory for astrophysics” but it is a laboratory over which we have no control. Instead, solar physicists employ a wide range of theoretical, computational, and observational tools to study the magnetically driven activity on the sun. The challenge for these methods is that solar physics is extremely complex, making it difficult to isolate the key drivers of ...
متن کاملThe elastic response of the earth to interannual variations in Antarctic precipitation
Measurements of elastic displacements of the bedrock surrounding large ice sheets have been proposed as a means to detect mass changes in these ice sheets. However, accumulation of glacial mass on the ice sheets is a noisy process, subject to large spatial and temporal variations in precipitation. We simulated the response of the Antarctic continent o a stochastic model of interannual precipita...
متن کاملOptical Turbulence in the Antarctic Atmosphere
Turbulence in the earth’s atmosphere severely limits the resolution and sensitivity of astronomical observations. The vertical distribution of turbulence in the atmosphere has a profound effect on the residuals after correction by an active instrument such as adaptive optics or a fringe tracking interferometer. It has already been shown that the South Pole has turbulence profiles unlike those a...
متن کاملIce-atmosphere interactions during sea-ice advance and retreat in the western Antarctic Peninsula region
[1] The seasonal evolution of sea-ice extent, concentration, and drift in the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) region, along with regional atmospheric synoptic variability, are described for a winter period (1992) when sea-ice advance and retreat were both anomalously early. Daily time series of winds, opening and closing of the sea-ice cover, and volume fluxes in and out of the WAP region ind...
