TLDR
In this article, a magnetic storm was used as an effective mechanism for removing atomic oxygen at high latitudes in the atmosphere during magnetic storms. But the mechanism was not suitable for high-latitudes.

How the thermospheric circulation affects the ionospheric F2-layer

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the physical principles that govern the behavior of the ionospheric F2-layer and reviewed the physics of thermospheric dynamics at F-layer heights, and discussed the seasonal, annual and semiannual variations of the quiet F2 peak at midlatitudes.

Global propagation of atmospheric gravity waves: A review

TL;DR: The theoretical and observational evidence concerning the global propagation of atmospheric gravity waves is reviewed in this article, with special emphasis on the waves generated in the auroral zones, and it is concluded that the only natural sources of large-scale TIDs are in the ionospheric zones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermospheric response to a magnetic substorm

TL;DR: In this article, a computer model is used to simulate the winds and temperature variations in the thermosphere which result from auroral region electric currents during a large isolated magnetic substorm.

Magnetic storm associated perturbations of the upper atmosphere: Recent results obtained by satellite‐borne gas analyzers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized some of the recent results on the disturbed upper atmosphere obtained by satellite-borne gas analyzers and showed that magnetospheric activity leads to the development of two different disturbance zones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some properties of upper atmosphere dynamics.

TL;DR: In this article, a unified description of important dynamic properties of the upper atmosphere in composition and temperature characteristic of a variety of phenomena, including diurnal and seasonal tides, magnetic storms, and momentum coupling with the magnetosphere, is provided.

Static diffusion models of the upper atmosphere with empirical temperature profiles

TL;DR: Static diffusion models of upper atmosphere with empirical temperature profiles - atmospheric density and composition tables as mentioned in this paper were used for modeling the upper atmosphere of the United States in the 1970s and 1980s.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrodynamic heating and movement of the thermosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of dissipation of ionospheric electric currents is extended to include viscosity, and conditions for significant heating by field-aligned currents are derived.

Chemical heating above the polar mesopause in winter

TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that this heat loss can be compensated by a release of the energy of recombination of atomic oxygen, which may be carried downward from higher altitudes by large-scale subsidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of the thermospheric density to auroral heating during geomagnetic disturbances.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate the atmospheric density response to auroral heating during geomagnetic disturbances simulation assuming impulse heat input into small latitude band within the auroral ovals.

F-region ionization and heating during magnetic storms

TL;DR: Simultaneous solution of continuity and heat conduction equations for ionospheric electrons, ions and neutral species for studying F region magnetic storm behavior as mentioned in this paper was used to study magnetic storm behaviour.
