Toward Accurate Physics‐Based Specifications of Neutral Density Using GNSS‐Enabled Small Satellites by Eric K. Sutton, Jeffrey P. Thayer, Marcin D. Pilinski, Shaylah M. Mutschler, Thomas E. Berger, Vu Nguyen, Dallas Masters

“…Thus, knowledge of and the ability to predict the space environment, most notably thermospheric mass density, are essential for operating satellites in this domain. Recent progress has been made toward supplanting the existing empirical, operational methods with physics‐based data‐assimilative models by accounting for the complex relationship between external drivers such as solar irradiance, Joule, and particle heating, and their response in the upper atmosphere. …”
