Variability of the lower thermosphere determined from satellite accelerometer data / Frank A. Marcos, Robert E. McInerney, Robert W. Fioretti.

An extensive atmospheric density data base has been developed using accelerometer results from four low altitude satellites. The altitude range of the data is from 250 km down to as low as 140 km, with latitude coverage from 90 N to 90 S and local time periods that cover several 24-hr cycles. The da...
