Impact of Thermospheric Mass Density on the Orbit Prediction of LEO Satellites

Abstract Many thermospheric mass density (TMD) variations have been recognized in observations and physical simulations; however, their impact on the low‐Earth‐orbit satellites has not been fully evaluated. The present study investigates the quantitative impact of periodic spatiotemporal TMD variati...
