A Study of Magnetic Activity Effects on the Thermospheric Winds in the Low Latitude Ionosphere

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the effects of magnetic activity on the low latitude F-region thermospheric winds. The F-region (120-1600 km) is a partially ionized medium where O+ and O are the major ion and neutral species, respectively. The thermospheric winds at these altitudes are driv...
