Why do solar wind models get it wrong: understanding the capabilities of time-dependent solar wind simulations
Evangelia Samara, Elena Provornikova, C. Nick Arge +2
We explore the capabilities of time-dependent (TD) magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) solar wind simulations with the coupled WSA model of the solar corona and GAMERA model of the inner he…
