Swarm DISC pre-study 5.1
Understanding the complex dynamics of neutral winds in the upper atmosphere is crucial for understanding thermosphere-ionosphere interactions. However, the limited availability of measurements and data coverage has hindered the comprehensive characterization of these winds.
Activity - Projects
SWESMAG
The project SWESMAG relies on magnetic field data from Swarm to investigate Space Weather (SWE) effects related to Geomagnetic Induced Currents (GICs), driven mainly by rapid variations of the ionospheric Polar Electrojet (PEJ) currents and quantified (loosely) by the variation of the horizontal ground magnetic field component dH/dt.
