Numerical Modeling of the Influence of Solar Activity on the Global Circulation in the Earth’s Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere

Figure 8

The global distributions of the atmospheric temperature (K) at 110 km altitude, obtained from the NRLMSISE-00 empirical model for 16 July, and calculated for two distinct values of solar activity: (a) and (b). Also the difference between the latter and the former distributions (c).
