Steep latitudinal gradients of thermospheric composition during magnetic storms: a possible formation mechanism
Mass spectrometer satellite observations show that a narrow region with steep latitudinal gradients of neutral composition is formed in the subauroral winter thermosphere during magnetic storms. In order to analyze the relative importance of individual terms in the continuity equation for atomic oxy...
