Mass Spectrometer Incoherent Scatter (MSIS) Model
Entry ID:
MSIS_Model
Summary
Abstract:
The Mass-Spectrometer-Incoherent-Scatter (MSIS) model describes the
neutral temperature and densities in the Upper Atmosphere (above about 100 km). MSIS-86 constitutes the upper part of the COSPAR International Reference Atmosphere (CIRA) 1986. The MSIS model is based on the extensive data compilation and analysis work of A.E. Hedin (GSFC, code 614) and his colleagues. Data sources include ...  Geographic Coverage
