The Earth Simulator Center: "
The holistic simulation is the simulation with the tremendously excellent accuracy that calculates the physics of several hundred kilo-meters, while calculating that of extremely small scale. We succeeded in the world's first aurora simulation using this algorithm. An aurora is the luminous phenomena that happen when an earth drugs solar wind into its atmosphere. The holistic simulation algorithm is being developed for understanding the complex physical process such as plasma phenomenon, atmospheric phenomenon, and rupture phenomenon of internal earth, and is expected to contribute to sciences of many fields."
