• Global response of the plasmasphere to a geomagnetic disturbance (2003, methodology): “Empirical models of the plasmapause location [e.g., Carpenter and Anderson, 1992; Moldwin et al., 2002] show that the plasmasphere shrinks or erodes quickly during periods of enhanced activity and slowly grows or refills during recovery times.”
• Particle Dynamics in the Earth's Radiation Belts: Review of Current Research and Open Questions (2020, background): “Statistical models of the plasmasphere density have existed for years (e.g., Carpenter & Anderson, 1992; Albert 1999; Sheeley et al., 2001; Moldwin et al., 2002; O'Brien & Moldwin, 2003; Denton et al., 2004, 2006; Ozhogin et al., 2006) as well as dynamic simulations of the plasmasphere (De Pascuale ”
• Use of POES SEM-2 observations to examine radiation belt dynamics and energetic electron precipitation into the atmosphere (2010, background): “This may be due to the significant uncertainties (with standard deviations up to ±1 L‐shell) reported from the plasmasphere model [Moldwin et al., 2002].”
• Ultralow frequency modulation of energetic particles in the dayside magnetosphere (2007, background): “This region is not so dense that it cannot be identified as the plasmasphere ( 100 cm (3)) [Moldwin et al., 2002].”
• Empirical plasmapause models from magnetic indices (2003, methodology): “[6] We use the database of over 900 plasmapause crossings developed by Moldwin et al. [2002] from in situ CRRES electron density observations made in 1990– 1991.”
