Effects of a mid-latitude solar eclipse on the thermosphere and ionosphere - A modelling study [PDF]
, 1998 A modelling study is presented which investigates in-situ generated changes of the thermosphere and ionosphere during a solar eclipse. Neutral temperatures are expected to drop by up to 40 degrees K at 240 km height in the totality footprint, with ...

Impacts of Lower Thermospheric Atomic Oxygen on Thermospheric Dynamics and Composition Using the Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2020 AbstractThe exchange of energy between the lower atmosphere and the ionosphere thermosphere system is not well understood. One of the parameters that is important in the lower thermosphere is atomic oxygen. It has recently been observed that atomic oxygen is higher in summer at ∼95 km.

Impact of gravity wave drag on the thermospheric circulation: implementation of a nonlinear gravity wave parameterization in a whole-atmosphere model [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2019 To investigate the effects of the gravity wave (GW) drag on the general circulation in the thermosphere, a nonlinear GW parameterization that estimates the GW drag in the whole-atmosphere system is implemented in a whole-atmosphere general circulation ...

Effects of Latitude-Dependent Gravity Wave Source Variations on the Middle and Upper Atmosphere
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 Atmospheric gravity waves (GWs) are generated in the lower atmosphere by various weather phenomena. They propagate upward, carry energy and momentum to higher altitudes, and appreciably influence the general circulation upon depositing them in the middle

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2007 Recent decades have seen great progress in computer modeling of the global thermosphere‐ionosphere system. The models are derived by solving simultaneously the conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy that govern the concentrations, velocities, and temperatures of the ions, electrons, and neutral gases.

Spatial and temporal correlations of thermospheric zonal winds from GOCE satellite observations
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Winds in the thermosphere play an important role in the transport of momentum and energy in the upper atmosphere and affect the composition, dynamics and morphology of the ionospheric plasma.
