TL;DR: The physical processes involved in the transfer of energy from the solar wind to the magnetosphere and its release associated with substorms on March 22, 1979, have been studied in detail by the Coordinated Data Analaysis Workshop 6 (CDAW 6) as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive evaluation of several currently-used empirical density models has been made using density data obtained 150-250 km from AFGL satellite accelerometer experiments during the period 1974-1982.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the predicted and measured winds, temperatures, and densities predicted by the thermospheric GCM with measurements from the Equinox Transition Study of September 17-24, 1984.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used measurements of atmospheric density near 200 km from the Satellite Electrostatic Triaxial Accelerometer (SETA) experiment to delineate the temporal, seasonal-latitudinal and day/night dependences of the response to magnetic storm-related perturbations in highlatitude energetic inputs.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between simulations from the National Center for Atmospheric Research therrmospheric general circulation model (TGCM), satellite electrostatic triaxial accelerometer measurements of neutral winds and total mass densities between 170 and 240 km, and mid-latitude Thomson scatter measurements, for the isolated magnetic disturbance occurring on March 22, 1979, commonly referred to as the CDAW 6 interval, was made.
