Project Kaiju
Introduction
Kaiju software includes the Multiscale Atmosphere-Geospace Environment
(MAGE) model developed by the
Center for Geospace Storms (CGS) as well as
other scientific software for simulation of heliospheric environments
such as planetary magnetospheres and the solar wind.
Current version
Currently
supported applications include
MAGE (version 1.25)
and GAMERA-helio, i.e., the
geospace and inner heliosphere applications of the kaiju
software. MAGE 1.25 includes GAMERA global magnetosphere
model, the RAIJU model of the inner magnetosphere, which is a full
rewrite of the Rice Convection Model (RCM), the REMIX ionospheric electrodynamics
module and the
TIEGCM model of the
ionosphere-thermosphere.
NASA Community Coordinated Modeling Center availability
Users are also welcome to run previous versions of MAGE via the
NASA's Community Coordinated Modeling
Center. MAGE versions
0.75 and
1.0 are available for
runs on request. MAGE 0.75 includes GAMERA, REMIX and RCM. MAGE 1.0 adds two-way coupling with TIEGCM to MAGE 0.75.
GAMERA-helio is also available for runs on request at the CCMC.
Documentation
Current documentation for the kaiju software is available via Read The
Docs.
Analysis
You are encouraged to use the Kaipy package for analysis and
visualization of Kaiju simulations.
