Thermospheric nitric oxide is modulated by the ratio of atomic to molecular oxygen and thermospheric dynamics during solar minimum [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsThe formation of nitric oxide (NO) by geomagnetic activity and EUV photoionization in the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere, and its subsequent impact on ozone, contributes to the natural forcing of the climate system, and has been recommended to ...

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.
