Design of Grid Computing Environment for Operative Weather Nowcasting
Weather nowcasting is a meteorological forecast which alerts civil protection institutions in case of heavy rain events, tornadoes, fires or heat waves and so on. This technique needs to process different data in a very short time. This paper, critically describes the design process of a computational infrastructure for weather nowcasting using both web and Grid technologies as a suitable solut...
متن کاملTimely Ers Scatterometer Winds for Weather Nowcasting
With the loss of the on-board ERS-2 tape recorders, ESA swiftly developed a new strategy for on-ground data acquisition. Rather than 14 ERS-2 data acquisitions per day, the acquisition rate has more than tripled, allowing data coverage in the North Atlantic and adjacent seas. Acquisition rate and coverage are still increasing. ESA processes all acquisitions independently, allowing user data acc...
متن کاملThe Space Radiation Environment
The effects of the space radiation environment on spacecraft systems and instruments are significant design considerations for space missions. Astronaut exposure is a serious concern for manned missions. In order to meet these challenges and have reliable, cost-effective designs, the radiation environment must be understood and accurately modeled. The nature of the environment varies greatly be...
متن کاملInserting Space Weather into a Virtual Space Environment
The Virtual SpacePlane (VSP) is a realistic prototype of the Manned SpacePlane (MSP) and simulates a number of the MSP missions in a realistic manner. To increase the realism of the space environment and space mission planning, we inserted a portrayal of space weather into the VSP’s virtual environment. In this paper we present background on the VSP project, space weather, and describe the requ...
متن کاملA model of the secondary radiation belt
[1] Products of nuclear reactions between primary radiation belt protons and constituents of the tenuous upper atmosphere form a collocated secondary radiation belt. A calculation of the time-dependent secondary intensity provides a model specification of this environmental component for lowand medium-altitude satellite orbits. It is based on an earlier model of the radiation belt protons, the ...
