Who We Are

CISM, the Center for Integrated Space Weather Modeling, is a National Science Foundation (NSF) Science and Technology Center (STC). CISM formally began operations in August 2002.

OUR VISION

To understand our dynamic sun-earth system and how it affects life and society.

OUR GOAL

To create a physics-based numerical simulation model that describes the space environment from the Sun to the Earth.

THE USES OF SPACE WEATHER MODELING

• A scientific tool for increased understanding of the complex space environment.
• A specification and forecast tool for space weather prediction.
• An educational tool for teaching about the space environment.

UPCOMING EVENTS

• July 19-30, 2010 CISM Summer School
• September 10-12, 2010 Grad Student Retreat
• September 13-15, 2010 All Hands Meeting
