[tgcmgroup] Questions regarding TIEGCM reference system and setup

[Armin Corbin]

Hello,

I have just stared using TIEGCM and have several question that could not 
be answered by the documentation.

I want to compare the neutral densities derived from satellite missions 
(CHAMP, Grace) with those computed with TIEGCM. Thus, the density 
information have to be given in the same reference system. In which 
reference system are the  coordinates (lat, lon, ZG/ZGMID) defined? Is 
the time given in UTC+0?

I have computed realistic results with the default setup for a quiet 
day. However, I was not able to  calculate good results for the 
Halloween storm (28–29 Oct 2003, doy:301-302 ). What is the correct 
setup for this scenario.  With which setup was the storm benachmark 
'tiegcm_res2.5_nov2003_heelis_gpi_prim.nc ' created?

thanks for your help
