This is a $319,554.14 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University (JHU) to study the effects of interplanetary shocks on the Earth's magnetosphere. The study aims to improve understanding of how shock-induced cavity mode oscillations (CMOs) interact with energetic electrons in the magnetosphere. The investigation will leverage data from multiple space weather monitoring satellites, including the Van Allen Probes and Time History of...
This is a $369,967.61 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere in response to solar and terrestrial inputs. The objective is to identify and characterize the primary plasma motions responsible for the onset of explosive magnetotail activity during substorms and bursty bulk flows. The research will use data from NASA's Cluster, THEMIS,...
This $398,944.55 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) enables The Johns Hopkins University, a private research university, to conduct research on the multi-scale processes of ring current buildup in the Earth's magnetosphere. The overarching goal is to advance the physical understanding of how energetic ions are transported from the magnetotail to the inner magnetosphere and accelerated during geomagnetic storms. The proposed research, which has a period of...

The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $203,902.74 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a time-dependent simulation model of the inner heliosphere and solar wind environment. The project aims to improve scientific understanding and space weather forecasting by incorporating data-assimilative photospheric magnetic field maps into a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model. Key tasks include integrating time-varying inputs from the ADAPT-WSA model, developing...

This contract award to The Johns Hopkins University (JHU) is for a project to investigate the influence of solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) parameters on the structure and evolution of the Earth's inner magnetosphere. The goal is to develop capabilities for quantitative prediction and specification of the inner magnetosphere environment. The $361,761.37 project will leverage new empirical geomagnetic field models and data from missions like Van Allen Probes and THEMIS to improve the accuracy of the inner magnetosphere magnetic field specification and determine the key solar wind factors controlling the storm-time field. The award is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Living With a Star (LWS) program. It does not have a set-aside designation. JHU, a private research university, is the prime contractor on this grant for research.
