Near-Real-Time Global Thermospheric Density Variations Unveiled by Starlink Ephemeris

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Previous efforts to retrieve thermospheric density using satellite payloads have been limited to a small number of satellites equipped with GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers and accelerometers.

Study of dynamics of minor constituents in the thermosphere, addendum [PDF]

open access: yes
Numerical studies of a model of the earth's thermosphere are presented. The distribution of thermospheric helium was investigated. Changes in the global transport of helium under solstice conditions caused by a small increase in the latitudes at which ...

Upper atmospheres and ionospheres of planets and satellites

open access: yes, 2017
The upper atmospheres of the planets and their satellites are more directly exposed to sunlight and solar wind particles than the surface or the deeper atmospheric layers.

Thermospheric density from Starlink TLE: data analysis and preliminary results

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
This study examines the feasibility of utilizing Two-Line Element (TLE) data from Starlink satellites to estimate thermospheric density. TLE data for satellites in orbital decay were collected from September 19 to November 6, 2024.

Theoretical model for the latitude dependence of the thermospheric annual and semiannual variations [PDF]

open access: yes
A three-dimensional model for the annual and semiannual variations of the thermosphere is presented in which energy and diffusive mass transport associated with the global circulation are considered in a self-consistent form.

Coupling Between the Thermosphere and the Stratosphere: the Role of Nitric Oxide [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
In order to understand the lower ionosphere and its probable control by dynamical processes, the behavior of nitric oxide below 100 km was investigated. A two dimensional model with coupled chemical and dynamical processes was constructed.

A Global Thermospheric Density Prediction Framework Based on a Deep Evidential Method

open access: yesSpace Weather
Thermospheric density influences the atmospheric drag and is crucial for space missions. This paper introduces a global thermospheric density prediction framework based on a deep evidential method. The proposed framework predicts thermospheric density at

A numerical study of a three dimensional spherical thermospheric density and wind model [PDF]

open access: yes
Numerical calculations of the generation and propagation of the two important fundamental symmetric tidal wave modes - the diurnal mode (1, 1, 1,) and the semidiurnal mode (2, 2, 2) - were performed applying a realistic model thermosphere and taking into
