Time-Dependent Model: planar cut along ecliptic.
These images show the density (normalized to 1 AU) and velocity as planar cuts along the ecliptic on (insert delay time here), (insert time delay here). The Sun is in the center; both Earth and Mars are shown in their orbits around the Sun. The maps are derived from a tomographic time-dependent model of the solar wind that is fit to interplanetary scintillation (IPS) velocities and g-levels obtained daily from STELab, Japan. The model is updated every time new data arrive from Japan, most recently at (insert t3d_time here). The display is update hourly. The animations run in (insert movie time step here) steps from (insert begin movie here) before, to (insert end movie here) after the last time data were received.
