Title: ISIS - INTER-SATELLITE & IN SITU PLASMASPHERIC MONITORING AND MODELLING: A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY OF STUDYING THE EARTH’S PLASMASPHERE VIA THE EUROPEAN GNSS SATELLITE SYSTEM
Issue Date: 31-Aug-2011
Keywords: plasmaspheric monitoring
GNSS satellites
Abstract: The extension and the local plasma properties of the Earth’s plasmasphere are governed by the interaction with the magnetosphere above (in turn forced by the solar wind) and by the matter exchange and electromagnetic coupling with the underlying ionosphere. The variability of the plasmasphere, as a consequence of the Sun’s forcing, defines our planet’s space weather, and could be entirely caught only by studying together global and local proxies of the state of this extended system.
