SEP Forecasting from the Lunar Gateway
The European Radiation Sensor Array (ERSA) planned to fly onboard the Gateway lunar space station will include a Standard Radiation Environment Monitor (SREM) energetic particle detector. The SREM detector has a long heritage and has flown aboard the Earth-orbiting INTEGRAL and PROBA-1 satellites, the L2 experiments Herschel and Planck, and the inner solar system mission Rosetta. SREM measures energetic protons between 11 – 250 MeV, enabling it to detect proton and electron enhancements due to solar energetic particle (SEP) events, which are potentially hazardous for humans and hardware in space. The UMASEP model, developed by Marlon Nuñez at the University of Malaga, ingests energetic particle measurements to produce forecasts of time to threshold crossing and the maximum flux expected within a certain time window. UMASEP is a mature model that has been running in real time for many years and has demonstrated forecasting skill. We plan to develop a UMASEP-Gateway >30 MeV forecast module using historical INTEGRAL/SREM data so that the model may begin forecasting as soon as ERSA begins returning real time data. UMASEP-Gateway will use the environment at the habitat to produce forecasts. This work will enable forecasting using the in situ environment at the spacecraft and will additionally act as a first step towards producing SEP forecasts directly at the vehicle where humans reside, a key capability that will be needed for exploration missions beyond the Moon.

Making Heliophysics Research More Open and Accessible at the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC)
The Space Weather and Heliophysics modeling community seeks to improve our understanding of space weather events and their impact on human activities. The Community Coordinated Modeling Center’s (CCMC, https://ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov) mission is to support the community by providing a convenient collaborative platform that brings together space weather models, model simulation data, curated datasets of solar events, and associated value-added services. Using these services, researchers and other end-users may exercise, evaluate, and intercompare contributed models, triage designated R2O models, as well as collaborate on a continuously updated archive of model run results. This presentation reports on CCMC’s ongoing efforts in making Heliophysics models and data more accessible, open, and reproducible. We will also explore interoperability within the ecosystem of CCMC services and how this ecosystem interoperates with external partner services and data streams.

Lowering Barriers to Science and Space Weather Research at the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC)
The Space Weather and Heliophysics research and modeling community has been pushing the limits of our ability to understand and predict space weather events. The Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC, https://ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov) supports the community by providing a convenient collaborative platform hosting space weather models, model simulation data, curated datasets of solar events, and associated value-added services. Using these services, researchers and other end-users may exercise, evaluate, and intercompare contributed models, triage designated R2O models, as well as collaborate on a continuously updated archive of model run results. We will focus on CCMC’s ongoing commitment to the principles and guidelines of the Open Science initiative. Particularly, we will discuss our work towards making our services more transparent and our library of model simulations more accessible, open, and reproducible. We will introduce our recent tools for data discovery and correlative analysis designed to further increase the value of the user-generated data and metadata. We will also present our recent work on making heliophysical models more accessible and open to the community, particularly through simplified user experience and expert domain support. We will report on our progress in establishing an inter-center infrastructure with the ESA Virtual Space Weather Modelling Centre (VSWMC), designed to cross organizational boundaries and provide streamlined access to a joint palette of the models.
