Systems-Science Approach to Heliophysics Research Enabled by Using Heliophysics Event Lists and Other Products and Methods

Session ID#: 161956

Session Description:
Heliophysics research requires a wide range of observational and modeling capabilities for investigating phenomena across the heliosphere. The diversities of observational data products and models necessitate the need for efficient ways to compile and access the resources researchers need to support their science tasks. Event lists are particularly useful for event and statistical studies.  An event list with sufficient examples of a given phenomenon can be used to distill the characteristics of the phenomenon (e.g., geomagnetic storms) and relate them to those of other phenomena, such as coronal mass ejection (CME) and stream-interaction region (SIR). Event lists thus provide a convenient framework for studying the interconnected heliophysical systems. If there are event lists compiled for phenomena in different heliophysics domains, it will then be possible to conduct interdisciplinary Heliophysics research as science of systems.

 

Our session focuses on how event lists and other high-level data products can help advance heliophysics research. Many event lists have been compiled on an as-needed basis, but they have not been archived systematically for general access. We will address how event lists, other high-level science products, and models can be archived, referenced, and made generally available for use by the Heliophysics community. Contributions on data-model comparisons with use of metadata standards and demonstrating heliophysics knowledge base improvements are welcome. Making heliophysics resources broadly accessible to researchers in other science disciplines would promote Open Science.
