摘要： We explore model performance for the Alfven Wave Solar atmosphere Model (AWSoM) with near-real-time (NRT) synoptic maps of the photospheric vector magnetic field. These maps, produced by assimilating data from the Helioseismic Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), use a different method developed at the National Solar Observatory (NSO) to provide a near contemporaneous source of data to drive numerical models. Here, we apply these NSO-HMI-NRT maps to simulate three Carrington rotations (CRs): 2107-2108 (centered on 2011/03/07 20:12 CME event), 2123 (integer CR) and 2218--2219 (centered on 2019/07/2 solar eclipse), which together cover a wide range of activity level for solar cycle 24. We show simulation results, which reproduce both extreme ultraviolet emission (EUV) from the low corona while simultaneously matching in situ observations at 1 au as well as quantify the total unsigned open magnetic flux from these maps.

摘要： We describe our first attempt to systematically simulate the solar wind during different phases of the last solar cycle with the Alfv\'en Wave Solar atmosphere Model (AWSoM) developed at the University of Michigan. Key to this study is the determination of the optimal values of one of the most important input parameter of the model, the Poynting flux, which prescribes the energy flux passing through the chromospheric boundary of the model in form of Alfv\'en wave turbulence. It is found that the optimal value of the Poynting flux parameter is correlated with: 1) the open magnetic flux with the linear correlation coefficient of 0.913; 2) the area of the open magnetic field regions with the linear correlation coefficient of 0.946. These highly linear correlations could shed light on understanding how Alfv\'en wave turbulence accelerates the solar wind during different phases of the solar cycle and estimating the Poynting flux parameter for real-time solar wind predictions with AWSoM.
