JOule heating effects on Ionosphere-thermosphere coupling and Neutral density (JOIN)
Prime company: UNIVERSITY OF OULU (FI)Understanding the detailed spatial and temporal dynamics of the space environment is a key task in solar-terrestrial research. This is also a fundamental requisite for providing successful space weather forecasts, such as predicting changes in atmospheric drag experienced by satellites at low-Earth orbits (LEO). The high-latitude auroral ionosphere is connected by magnetic field lines to …
