Anomalous electron heating effects on the E region ionosphere in TIEGCM [PDF]
We have recently implemented a new module that includes both the anomalous electron heating and the electron‐neutral cooling rate correction associated with the Farley‐Buneman Instability (FBI) in the thermosphere‐ionosphere electrodynamics global ...

Spatial and temporal correlations of thermospheric zonal winds from GOCE satellite observations
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.

Gas-surface interactions modelling influence on satellite aerodynamics and thermosphere mass density
The satellite acceleration data from the CHAMP, GRACE, GOCE, and Swarm missions provide detailed information on the thermosphere density over the last two decades.

Limb sounders tracking topographic gravity wave activity from the stratosphere to the ionosphere around midlatitude Andes [PDF]
Several studies have shown that the surroundings of the highest Andes mountains at midlatitudes in the Southern Hemisphere exhibit gravity waves (GWs) generated by diverse sources which may traverse the troposphere and then penetrate the upper layers if ...

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.

Longitudinal variability of thermospheric zonal winds near dawn and dusk
Understanding the morphology and dynamics of the thermosphere is key to understanding the Earth’s upper atmosphere as a whole. Thermospheric winds play an important role in this process by transporting momentum and energy and affecting the composition ...

A new perspective on the longitudinal variability of the semidiurnal tide [PDF]
The longitudinal variability of the semidiurnal tide in the Antarctic upper mesosphere is investigated by comparison of observations from two radars at approximately opposite sides of Antarctica. Under the assumption that the tide is composed of an S = 2

Scientific motivations and future directions of whole atmosphere modeling
The recent development of whole atmosphere models that extend from the surface to the upper thermosphere represents a significant advance in modeling capabilities of the ionosphere-thermosphere.
