Häusler, K. (author), Hagan, M.E. (author), Forbes, J.M. (author), Zhang, X. (author), Doornbos, E. (author), Bruinsma, S. (author), Lu, G. (author)In this paper, we provide insights into limitations imposed by current satellite-based strategies to delineate tidal variability in the thermosphere, as well as the ability of a state-of-the-art model to replicate thermospheric tidal determinations. Toward this end, we conducted a year-long thermosphere-ionosphere-mesosphere-electrodynamics...journal article 2015

Lu, G. (author), Hagan, M.E. (author), Häusler, K. (author), Doornbos, E.N. (author), Bruinsma, S. (author), Anderson, B.J. (author), Korth, H. (author)We present a case study of the 5 April 2010 geomagnetic storm using observations and numerical simulations. The event was driven by a fast-moving coronal mass ejection and despite being a moderate storm with a minimum Dst near ?50 nT, the event exhibited elevated thermospheric density and surges of traveling atmospheric disturbances (TADs) more...journal article 2014

(author)We report on a new source of tidal variability in the National Center for Atmospheric Research thermosphere-ionosphere-mesosphere-electrodynamics general circulation model (TIME-GCM). Lower boundary forcing of the TIME-GCM for a simulation of November–December 2009 based on 3-hourly Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Application ...journal article 2014
