| 内容記述 | Observational data obtained by the Dynamics Explorer-2 (DE-2) spacecraft were compared with global model simulations in order to study the composition, structure, temperature, and dynamics of the upper thermosphere in polar regions during the period October-December 1981. A UCL three-dimensional model was used to simulate the seasonal, diurnal, and geomagnetic response of the neutral thermosphere and to follow the major features of the solar and geomagnetic inputs during the late 1981 period. Overall agreement was obtained between the simulations and the DE-2 data for thermospheric wind structure at high latitudes, and for the combined thermal and compositional structure in both hemispheres. Computer-generated line drawings of the variations in thermospheric structure are given, as well as a series of color graphic illustrations of the DE-2 data. |
