An Empirical Model for the Dayside Magnetospheric Plasma Mass Density Derived From EMMA Magnetometer Network Observations

A local time dependent empirical model of the equatorial plasma mass density in the inner magnetosphere is derived from field line resonance (FLR) observations at the European quasi‐Meridional Magnetometer Array (EMMA). Models of the plasmasphere, plasmatrough, and plasmapause are derived separately...

Zusammenfassung:	A local time dependent empirical model of the equatorial plasma mass density in the inner magnetosphere is derived from field line resonance (FLR) observations at the European quasi‐Meridional Magnetometer Array (EMMA). Models of the plasmasphere, plasmatrough, and plasmapause are derived separately and then combined. The whole model is limited to the local time (LT) sector 06:00‐18:00 and to the range of equatorial distances 2.3RE
