Solar extreme‐ultraviolet irradiance for general circulation models
Stanley C. Solomon,Liying Qian +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method for using solar spectral measurements or models to calculate ionization and dissociation rates throughout the upper atmosphere, including photoelectron effects, was described, and an example calculation using the National Center for Atmospheric Research thermosphere-ionosphere-electrodynamics general circulation model was shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Validation of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model With Thermosphere and Ionosphere Extension (WACCM‐X 2.0)
Hanli Liu,Charles G. Bardeen,B. Foster,Peter H. Lauritzen,Jing Liu,Gang Lu,Daniel R. Marsh,Daniel R. Marsh,Astrid Maute,Joseph McInerney,Nicholas Pedatella,Liying Qian,Arthur D. Richmond,Raymond G. Roble,Stanley C. Solomon,Francis Vitt,Francis Vitt,Wenbin Wang +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the NCAR Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with thermosphere and ionosphere extension (WACCM-X) 2.0 (2.0) has been used for solar maximum and minimum conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variation of thermospheric density and composition
TL;DR: In this article, a seasonal variation of eddy diffusion compatible with this description is obtained, and when this function is imposed at the lower boundary of the TIE-GCM, neutral density variation consistent with satellite drag data and O/N2 consistent with measurements by TIMED/GUVI, are obtained.

Journal ArticleDOI
Anomalously low solar extreme‐ultraviolet irradiance and thermospheric density during solar minimum
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the NCAR Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Electrodynamics General Circulation Model (THEMG) to study the role of solar extreme-ultraviolet irradiance on the terrestrial thermosphere.
