¥Since these phenomena are almost
certainly magnetically
driven, they must incorporate magnetic field
observations (line-of-sight and vector magnetogram
data)
¥Governing evolutionary equations
believed to be (pretty)
well described by 3-d magnetohydrodynamics (MHD)
¥How does one incorporate the
observations (the A-word) into an MHD model? Solving this problem is absolutely
critical if we ever want to have a predictive
(forecasting) model of space weather.
