    An analytic formulation for heating source memory in the thermospheric composition (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Numerical calculations from a spectral circulation model are utilized to construct an analytic Green's function formulation describing the meridional, time-dependent thermospheric composition and temperature response during magnetic storms. The purpose is to develop a formulation that embodies source memory while being sufficiently simple to serve as a heuristic guide for empirical modeling. By passing from the discrete Fourier series representation, utilized for the numerical circulation model, to a continuous Fourier integral representation, explicit waves are obtained for the thermospheric response times. The response times are altitude and species dependent and can exceed two days below 200 km. Thus, for certain storm scenarios, pronounced source memory signatures for the composition and temperature are predicted. Response times obtained from the formulation are shown to give a response consistent with previously published neutral composition data from AE-C for the February 1974 storm when an ap dependent heat source is employed.

    Semiempirical modeling of thermospheric magnetic storms (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: An improved formulation for empirical modeling of magnetic storm effects in neutral thermospheric composition and temperature is utilized in a study of two disturbed periods. The formulation, which incorporates the prior history of the heat input rather than a single phase delay, is based on a Fourier integral representation of an existing theoretical model. This results in an improved representation of the detailed time variations and a better carry-over of model parameters from one storm to the other and provides a basis for theoretical interpretation.

    Direct evidence of transport processes in the thermospheric diurnal tide (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Measurements of neutral composition and temperature obtained between December 6, 1975, and September 17, 1976, with instruments aboard the near-equatorial AE-E satellite are analyzed to determine the diurnal variations at altitudes from 145 to 295 km. The general trends, including the shift in oxygen phase from afternoon at high altitudes to morning at low altitudes, are reproduced by circulation theories. The oxygen and helium variations show small departures from diffusive equilibrium below 200 km that are consistent with wind-induced diffusion and provide the first direct evidence of transport processes in the diurnal tide of the thermosphere.

    Upper limits on production rate of NO per ion pair (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The maximum production rate of NO per ion pair during a solar proton event has been calculated using an approach described by Porter et al. (1976). For altitudes between 80 and 120 km the calculation yields a limit of 2.68 NO per ion pair for 10 keV electrons, a value which is consistent with the rates implied by the measurements of Arnold (1978) as quoted by Fabian et al. (1979). For altitudes below 80 km the maximum rate of NO production is calculated to be 1.46 to 1.53 NO per ion pair.

    Tides and the midnight temperature anomally in the thermosphere (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Spectral analysis of the midnight temperature anomaly observed on Atmosphere Explorer-E indicates that the phenomenon can be adequately represented with wave numbers between 1 and 5. Results from a multiconstituent circulation model suggest that this feature and associated variations in composition are the result of a complex interaction between the semidiurnal tide generated in the lower atmosphere and ion-neutral momentum coupling associated with the diurnal variation of the ion density which, in turn, also generates higher order tidal models.
