Journal ArticleDOI
Control of equatorial ionospheric morphology by atmospheric tides
Thomas J. Immel,Eiichi Sagawa,Scott L. England,S. B. Henderson,Maura E. Hagan,Stephen B. Mende,Harald U. Frey,Charles Swenson,Larry J. Paxton +8 more
TL;DR: Immel et al. as discussed by the authors showed that ionospheric densities vary with the strength of nonmigrating, diurnal atmospheric tides that are, in turn, driven mainly by weather in the tropics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Initial observations with the Global Ultraviolet Imager (GUVI) in the NASA TIMED satellite mission
Andrew B. Christensen,Larry J. Paxton,Susan K. Avery,John D. Craven,G. Crowley,David C. Humm,Hyosub Kil,R. R. Meier,C.-I. Meng,Daniel Morrison,B. Ogorzalek,Paul R. Straus,D. J. Strickland,R. M. Swenson,Richard L. Walterscheid,Brian C. Wolven,Yongliang Zhang +16 more
TL;DR: The Global Ultraviolet Imager (GUVI) was used by the NASA TIMED satellite to measure the spectral radiance of the Earth's far ultraviolet airglow in the spectral region from 120 to 180 nm using a cross-track scanning spectrometer design as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
An empirical Kp-dependent global auroral model based on TIMED/GUVI FUV data
Yongliang Zhang,Larry J. Paxton +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new empirical formulation of the mean energy and energy flux of precipitating electrons in the auroral oval is presented, based on global far ultraviolet (FUV) observations by Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED)/Global Ultraviolet Imager (GUVI) (N 2 Lyman-Birge-Hopfield small (LBHS) 140.0-150.0 ǫ 0.0 µm and Lyman−Birge−Hopfield long (LBHL) 165.0 0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models of Venus neutral upper atmosphere: Structure and composition
Gerald M. Keating,Jean-Loup Bertaux,Stephen W. Bougher,Robert E. Dickinson,Thomas E. Cravens,Andrew F. Nagy,A. E. Hedin,V. A. Krasnopolsky,J. Y. Nicholson,Larry J. Paxton,U. von Zahn +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided models of the Venus neutral upper atmosphere, based on both in-situ and remote sensing measurements, for the height interval from 100 to 3,500 km.
Journal ArticleDOI
Satellite remote sensing of thermospheric O/N2 and solar EUV: 1. Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between O/N{sub 2} and 135.6/LBH is quantified using the Hinteregger formulation for characterizing spectral changes with solar activity.
