| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a whole atmosphere-ionosphere coupled model, GAIA. In this study, we improve the resolution and numerical treatment of the model in order to utilize it for numerical prediction of the upper atmosphere, especially improving the numerical scheme for the dynamics of and thermal diffusion of ionospheric plasma along geomagnetic field lines. We also carry out a long-term simulation of GAIA, and compare its output with observations and other model outputs. The improved model can reproduce finer ionospheric structures with spatial scale of several 100km, so it can be used for the analysis of such small scale ionospheric phenomena.
