The thermosphere of Titan [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1984 The diurnal variation of the vertical structure of Titan's thermosphere is calculated through simultaneous solution of the equations of heat transfer and hydrostatic equilibrium. The temperature and density profiles are found above the mesopause. The dynamical response of the thermosphere to heating is for the most part neglected.

Thermospheric atomic oxygen density estimates using the EISCAT Svalbard Radar [PDF]
, 2013 [1] Coupling between the ionized and neutral atmosphere through particle collisions allows an indirect study of the neutral atmosphere through measurements of ionospheric plasma parameters. We estimate the neutral density of the upper thermosphere above ~

What to Do When the F10.7 Goes Out?
Space Weather, 2023 The solar radio flux at 10.7 cm, known as F10.7, is a critical operational space weather index. However, without a clear backup, any interruption to the service can result in substantial errors in model outputs.

Assimilation of thermospheric measurements for ionosphere‐thermosphere state estimation [PDF]
Radio Science, 2016 AbstractWe develop a method that uses data assimilation to estimate ionospheric‐thermospheric (IT) states during midlatitude nighttime storm conditions. The algorithm Estimating Model Parameters from Ionospheric Reverse Engineering (EMPIRE) uses time‐varying electron densities in the F region, derived primarily from total electron content data, to ...

Thermospheric tides during thermosphere mapping study periods [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 1987 Neutral exospheric temperatures at 53°, 43° and 33° latitude from Millstone Hill steerable-antenna Thomson scatter measurements, and at 19° latitude from the Arecibo Observatory, obtained during three Thermosphere Mapping Study (TMS) coordinated campaign intervals during 1984 and 1985. are analyzed for diurnal and semidiurnal tidal components.

Heating and cooling of the thermosphere by internal gravity waves [PDF]
, 2009 For the first time, estimates of heating and cooling in the upper thermosphere due to dissipating and breaking gravity waves ( GWs) of tropospheric origin have been obtained with a comprehensive general circulation model ( GCM).
