GGCM - Metrics Session Tuesday 10:30 - 12:15 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Aaron Ridley Please join us to discuss the use of Metrics in quantifying a model's ability to capture different features. We will have a few short presentations in different metrics ideas and then open the floor for discussion on metrics. One issue that we would like to examine this year is how to combine different comparisons to different satellite and ground-based measurements to come up with some single (or multiple?) score(s) for a model. In addition, we would like to discuss the best methods for quantifying the differences between different patterns (e.g., field-aligned currents, EUV images, ENA images, etc). If you would like to give a short talk on these topics, please contact Aaron Ridley (ridley@umich.edu). +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |To subscribe GEM Messengers, send an e-mail to | | with the following command in the body of your e-mail message: | | subscribe gem | |To remove yourself from the mailing list, the command is: | | unsubscribe gem | | | |To broadcast a message to the GEM community, please contact Peter Chi at | | | |Please use plain text as the format of your submission. | | | |URL of GEM Home Page: http://www-ssc.igpp.ucla.edu/gem/Welcome.html | |Workshop Information: http://gem.rice.edu/~gem | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
