Some recent studies have revealed that the post-storm thermospheric mass density sometime drops below its pre-storm value. This phenomenon has been attributed to the over-cooling effect caused by enhanced infrared emissions from nitric oxide.

Medium-scale ionospheric ionization structures are a persistent global feature of the earth’s ionosphere.
This study, by Pedatella and others, employs a troposphere to lower thermosphere reanalysis dataset generated by the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with data assimilation provided by the Data Assimilation Research Testbed (WACCM+DART).
Wang and others present a global, time-dependent simulation of the Mars upper atmospheric responses to an X8.2-class solar flare event on 10 September 2017.
Magnetic fields suspend the relatively cool material of solar prominences in an otherwise hot corona. A comprehensive understanding of solar prominences ultimately requires complex and dynamic models, constrained and validated by observations spanning the solar atmosphere.
