Validation of SSUSI-derived auroral electron densities: Comparisons to EISCAT data [PDF]

Ann. Geophys., 39, 899--910, 2021, 2021
The coupling of the atmosphere to the space environment has become recognized as an important driver of atmospheric chemistry and dynamics. In order to quantify the effects of particle precipitation on the atmosphere, reliable global energy inputs on spatial scales commensurate with particle precipitation variations are required.
