Storm-time related mass density anomalies in the polar cap as observed by CHAMP
Strong and localized thermospheric mass density events are observed in the polar cap region by the CHAMP satellites at about 400 km altitude during geomagnetic storms. During the 4 years considered (2002–2005) 29 storms with Dst<−100 nT occurred, in 90% of them polar cap density...
