The focus group leaders for Merged Modeling and Measurements for the Magnetosphere with Ionospheric Ion Outflow (M3-I2) invite speakers to discuss model-measurement of ion outflow on the magnetosphere and ring current during quiet, storm, and recovery times. We are open to any study of ion outflow effects in the magnetosphere and ring current. We encourage the integration of the observations from MMS and Van Allen probes with support from additional magnetospheric satellites (THEMIS, GEOTAIL, etc) when available. The intention is to move towards second-generation ion-outflow/magnetosphere modeling and understanding of the eventual distribution and history of the ionospheric ion component of magnetospheric plasma.

The focus group leaders for Merged Modeling and Measurements for the Magnetosphere with Ionospheric Ion Outflow (M3-I2) invite speakers to discuss the physics, modeling, and measurements of ion outflow into the magnetosphere and inner magnetosphere during quiet, storm, and recovery times. We are striving to address the physics and modeling efficacy of ion outflow modeling into magnetospheric models. What is the ion outflow structure product from underlying ionosphere boundary conditions in subauroral, cusp, auroral, polar cap, dayside/nightside? How important are kinetic electron effects? Where are the regions and altitudes of wave-particle interactions for ion energization? How does the structure and timing relate to Magnetospheric Effects within Mag. Models and observations. Measurement and Model comparisons are encouraged.

2018 GEM Workshop June 17-23, 2018

Co-Chairs for M3-I2 Sessions

Barbara Giles, NASA/GSFC/GPL
Shasha Zou, U. of Michigan/CLaSP
Vince Eccles, USU/CASS


We want to continue collaborative efforts for examining the storm periods chosen for community study:

  • Storm 1: 2016 Mar 4-8 (DOY 64-68)
  • Storm 2: 2016 Oct 11-15 (285-289)
  • Possibly: 2016 May 6-10 (127-131)
    • Especially including new and newly-restored data sets
    • Other specialized events/studies are welcome, especially those speaking to statistical states. It is important to study not only storm times, but also non-storm times in which the ionosphere is feeding the plasma sheet and building it up steadily prior to any reconnection or storm activity.

This will also be the encouraged focus for M3I2 GEM Mini-Workshop at 2018 Fall AGU.
