The Interaction (coupling) of Thermosphere and Ionosphere and estimation of physical parameters based on space sensors onboard satellites.

At our Institute, we provide reduced and calibrated Swarm accelerometer data for the ESA Swarm data processing chain that are the basis for the determination of thermospheric density. This includes the accelerometer calibration by precise orbit determination of Swarm satellites.
