• Model Fortran 77 code
• Includes code files, python wrapper, and README.

Model Validation

Test JB2008 model implementation accuracy on your system by running this test case and comparing to provided output data.

Other Ways to Run JB2008

• Orekit
• MATLAB
• Coming Soon: CAMEL

Inputs

Space weather indices are provided here with a 45-day lag between the current day-of-year (DOY). The operational, real-time space weather indices can be requested via UDL.

• SOLFSMY.txt, solar indices (F10, S10, M10, Y10)
• SOLRESAP.txt, geomagnetic 3-hour Ap indices
• DSTFILE.txt, geomagnetic hourly Dst
• DTCFILE.txt, hourly DTC values

Note: JB2008 uses the hourly Dst values during moderate to high geomagnetic activity, and the 3-hour Ap values during low to no storm activity.
