Description

There is a need to specify and forecast near-earth i-t-e space weather to reduce the risks from hazards to systems that operate in this environment. An indicator of the current state and the near-term evolution of large geomagnetic storms is the presence of nitric oxide (no), a minor species, which is produced during geomagnetic storms. IT is created in the 100-160 KM region due to precipitating charged particles along earth's magnetic field lines that enter the higher latitude atmosphere. Geomagnetic disturbances lead to episodic heating and expansion of the thermosphere. The expansion then increases density at fixed altitudes and causes more atmospheric drag on LEO objects. As a geomagnetic storm's joule heating and particle precipitation heat the auroral regions, there is increased infra
