Description:This paper presents the validation of modeled total electron content (TEC) from 14 ionospheric models, including empirical, physics-based, and data assimilation (DA) models, hosted by the NASA/NSF Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC), NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). This study aims to assess the current progress and capability of the CCMC-hosted ionospheric models in capturing the storm time ionosphere during the low and moderate solar flux years. We focus on the low-latitude ionosphere (i.e., ±40° in magnetic latitude) and compare the modeled TEC with the Madrigal TEC during the 2013 March and 2021 November storms. Multiple metrics are used to quantitatively
