Time-Dependent Model: Synoptic forecast of the solar wind at 1.0 AU
These Carrington maps (with heliographic longitude and Carrington rotation number on the horizontal axis, and latitude on the vertical) show the solar wind radial and tangential magnetic field at the distance of the Earth from the Sun on (insert system time here). The Earth is approximately centered in the maps. The maps are derived from a time-dependent model of the solar wind that is fit to interplanetary scintillation (IPS) velocities and g-levels obtained daily from STELab, Japan. The tomographic,time-dependent model is updated hourly, most recently at (insert t3d_time here). 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.
