Staff member at CCMC since the beginning (2000).
The CCMC hosts numerical model of the solar corona, heliosphere, Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere/thermosphere, atmosphere and magnetic field and offers runs-on-request (RoR) to scientists around the world through its web site.
Responsibilities at CCMC: preparation of models for RoR (request interface, run procedures, post-processing), visualization of run results (online ands through Kamodo Python open-source software), added processing (e.g., time series, model outputs along satellite tracks, magnetic perturbations on the ground, quantities computed from primary model output variables), model validation studies.
