CEDAR email: TIE-GCM OTHITACS Dataset Released

[Timothy.Kodikara at dlr.de]

The open time-series of the high-resolution ionosphere-thermosphere
aeronomic climate simulation (OTHITACS)

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the release of the TIE-GCM OTHITACS dataset.
This dataset, now available at 
https://doi.org/10.26050/WDCC/OTHITACS_tiegcm, provides an unparalleled
collection of TIE-GCM output from 1 January 2000 onwards, totalling
over 80 TB of data.

Thanks to the computing and data resources provided by the Kratos HPDA
(High-Performance Data Analysis) cluster at the German Aerospace Center
(DLR), the OTHITACS dataset provides 38 diagnostics of the ionosphere-
thermosphere system at a 10-minute cadence. The dataset is archived at
the World Data Center for Climate (WDCC) at DKRZ (
https://www.wdc-climate.de/ui/project?acronym=OTHITACS).

The dataset provides opportunities to study, among others, long-term
ionospheric plasma density variability, neutral composition trends,
neutral winds, ion drift velocity, equatorial anomaly, and travelling
ionospheric/atmospheric disturbances. Additionally, researchers can
leverage this dataset to develop machine learning-based tools and
computationally simpler, reduced-order physics-based models.

bw,
Tim
