Incorporation of UV Radiances into the USU GAIM Models

Abstract

Our primary goal is to incorporate UV radiances from the SSULI and SSUSI instruments, which will be flown on the NPOSSE satellites, into the USU GAIM models. A secondary goal is to conduct GAIM simulations in order to elucidate the physics underlying equatorial spread F and plasma bubbles.
