The need for high precision measurements of vertical winds with uncertainties on the scale of 3–5 m s−1 and a temporal cadence of 1–2 min to achieve detection of gravity wave (GW) structure has made it exceedingly difficult to study the response of the ...

ABSTRACT The Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere establish an essential connection between Earth's lower atmosphere and upper atmosphere because wind patterns essential for atmospheric movement also influence energy distribution and chemical movements during geomagnetic storms that disrupt satellite operations and space weather prediction systems.

Case study of the mesospheric and lower thermospheric effects of solar x-ray flares: Coupled ion-neutral modelling and comparison with EISCAT and riometer measurements [PDF]
Two case studies of upper mesospheric and lower thermospheric (UMLT) high-latitude effects of solar X-ray flares are presented. Sodankylä Ion-neutral Chemistry Model (SIC) electron density profiles agree with D-region EISCAT and riometer ...

Atmospheric Tides Imprint a Wavenumber‐4 Structure in Topside Ionospheric ELF Wave Intensity
Abstract Atmospheric tides produce a well known pronounced longitudinal wavenumber‐4 (WN‐4) structure in the ionosphere, but their influence on electromagnetic‐wave propagation through the ionosphere remains poorly constrained. Here we use DEMETER satellite measurements to show that the extremely low frequency (ELF) electric field in the low‐latitude ...

First tristatic studies of meso-scale ion-neutral dynamics and energetics in the high-latitude upper atmosphere using collocated fpis and EISCAT radar [PDF]
A unique experiment was undertaken during the nights of 27 and 28 February 2003. Tristatic Fabry-Perot Interferometer (FPI) measurements of the upper thermosphere were co-located with tristatic EISCAT radar measurements of the ionosphere.

Drag Coefficient Constraints for Space Weather Observations in the Upper Thermosphere
The space weather research community relies heavily on thermospheric density data to understand long‐term thermospheric variability, construct assimilative, empirical, and semiempirical global atmospheric models and validate model performance. One of the

Abstract Using lidar observations of 12 monthly composites of normalized Na density ratios, we have discovered an Ionosphere‐Thermosphere‐Mesosphere (ITM) Na transition layer from ∼120 to ∼95 km over Boulder, Colorado. The transition layer occurs regularly in all months with a distinct separation from the predawn TINa layer and exhibits coherent ...

Science Through Machine Learning: Quantification of Post‐Storm Thermospheric Cooling
Machine learning (ML) models are universal function approximators and—if used correctly—can summarize the information content of observational data sets in a functional form for scientific and engineering applications.
