TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a global model of Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere to simulate the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) substorm challenge event of November 24, 1996, and compared their results to International Monitor for Auroral Geomagnetic Effects (IMAGE) ground magnetometer data, assimilative mapping of ionospheric electrodynamics (AMIE) polar cap potential and field aligned current patterns, Polar Visible Imaging System (VIS) estimates of the polar cap magnetic flux, GOES 8 geosynchronous magnetometer Data, IMP 8 magnet

Theoretical study of the low- and midlatitude ionospheric electron density enhancement during the October 2003 superstorm: Relative importance of the neutral wind and the electric field
C. H. Lin,C. H. Lin,Arthur D. Richmond,Roderick A. Heelis,G. J. Bailey,Gang Lu,Jann-Yenq Liu,H. C. Yeh,Shin-Yi Su +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed numerical simulations for the 29-30 October 2003 superstorm period in the American longitude sector (∼ −70°W) using the Sheffield University Plasmasphere Ionosphere Model (SUPIM) with values for the neutral wind, temperature, and composition provided by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Thermosphere General Circulation Model (TIEGCM).

Magnetosphere‐ionosphere‐thermosphere coupling: Effect of neutral winds on energy transfer and field‐aligned current
TL;DR: In this paper, the assimilative mapping of ionospheric electrodynamics (AMIE) algorithm has been applied to derive the realistic time-dependent large-scale global distributions of the ionosphere convection and particle precipitation during a recent Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) campaign period: March 28-29, 1992.
