The atmospheric model in the region 90 to 2000 km

TLDR
In this paper, a comprehensive revision of the MSIS-83 earth atmosphere model was undertaken to extend predictions to the mesopause, on the basis of temperature, density, and composition data obtained by sounding rockets, satellites, and incoherent scatter radars.

Extension of the MSIS Thermosphere Model into the middle and lower atmosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, the MSIS-86 empirical model has been extended into the mesosphere and lower atmosphere to provide a single analytic model for calculating temperature and density profiles representative of the climatological average for various geophysical conditions.

Regular and chaotic charged particle motion in magnetotaillike field reversals: 1. Basic theory of trapped motion

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a systematic theoretical analysis of trapped nonadiabatic charged particle motion in two-dimensional taillike magnetic field reversals and derive the related pitch angle diffusion coefficient which describes statistically the particle behavior in the limit κ → 1.

Empirical wind model for the upper, middle and lower atmosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the HWM90 thermospheric wind model has been revised in the lower thermosphere and extended into the mesosphere, stratosphere and lower atmosphere to provide a single analytic model for calculating zonal and meridional wind profiles representative of the climatological average for various geophysical conditions.

Thermospheric Density and Wind Determination from Satellite Dynamics

TL;DR: Empirical modelling of the thermosphere and non-gravitational force modelling using satellite dynamics observations is presented in this article, where the authors propose a method to produce density and crosswind from satellite dynamics data.

Ionospheric storm effects at subauroral latitudes: A case study

TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt is made to classify ionospheric storm effects at subauroral latitudes according to their presumed origin, using ionosonde, electron content, and DE 2 satellite data.

Revised static models of the thermosphere and exosphere with empircial temperature profiles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present static models with empirical thermal profiles, giving temperature, density and composition as a function of height, for both the atmosphere and exosphere static models.

A revised thermospheric model based on mass spectrometer and incoherent scatter data - MSIS-83

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the previous description of neutral parameters to the base of the thermosphere in a continuous manner while maintaining the basic structure of the MSIS model at higher altitudes.

A global thermospheric model based on mass spectrometer and incoherent scatter data MSIS, 1. N2 density and temperature

TL;DR: In this article, mass spectrometers on five satellites (AE-B, Ogo 6, San Marco 3, Aeros A, and AE-C) and neutral temperatures inferred from incoherent scatter measurements at four ground stations are combined to produce a model of thermospheric neutral temperatures and nitrogen densities similar to the Ogo6 empirical model (Hedin et al., 1974).

Cospar international reference atmosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the scientific problem of high altitude physics which involves the determination of density, pressure, composition and temperature is discussed, and it is found that these properties are not only functions of altitude, but also of local time and position with regard to the surface of the earth.
