Be challenged and imagine with us You will use theory, data analysis, and computation to improve our ability to model the dynamical evolution of solar active regions, which are responsible for solar activity including solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs).
Flares and CMEs are the most energetic events in the solar system and can create hazardous conditions in our local space environment.
This project involves: developing a predictive capability for the evolution of the Sun's surface magnetic field, using physical models, machine learning and observational data; creating ensemble data-driven simulations of active regions in the Sun's atmosphere; applying the ensemble modelling to predict solar eruptions from first principles, and forecasting their physical properties.
