• WHOLE ATMOSPHERE MODELING: CONNECTING TERRESTRIAL AND SPACE WEATHER (2011, methodology): “[68] Figure 8 compares WAM simulations with SABER observations of the DE3 temperature amplitude in the E layer near 116 km [Akmaev et al., 2008; Forbes et al., 2008b].”
• Nonmigrating tidal signals in the upper thermospheric zonal wind at equatorial latitudes as observed by CHAMP (2009, result): “Besides the good agreement between the zonal wind at 100 km and 400 km altitude, there is also good agreement with the findings of Forbes et al. (2008) who analyzed SABER temperatures for tidal signatures.”
• Wave-driven variability in the ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere system from TIMED observations: What contributes to the wave 4 ? (2011, background): “Antisymmetric modes tend to drive field‐aligned currents as opposed to electric field generation [ Forbes et al., 2008 ].”
• Thermosphere extension of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (2010, methodology): “X is ∼210 K, warmer than the mesopause temperature measured by SABER and from TIME‐GCM (∼180 K).”
• Variability and predictability of the space environment as related to lower atmosphere forcing (2016, background): “…tidal signals can extend into the upper thermosphere, including the ionospheric dynamo region [e.g., Häusler et al., 2007; Häusler and Lühr, 2009; Forbes et al., 2008, 2009; Oberheide et al., 2009; Häusler et al., 2010], in spite of the strong molecular damping of the waves in the thermosphere.”
• Tropospheric tidal effects on the middle and upper atmosphere (2009, background): “…spaceborne instruments demonstrates that the DE3 is a ubiquitous feature of the low-latitude upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere, and that it exhibits strong seasonal variability, maximizing during August–September [e.g., Forbes et al., 2002, 2008, Oberheide et al., 2006, Wu et al., 2008b].”
• Electrodynamics of the formation of ionospheric wave number 4 longitudinal structure (2008, background): “[19] It is noteworthy to point out the efficiency of DE3 wind in producing dynamo electric field because many nonmigrating tides other than DE3 have been observed in the dynamo region [ Forbes et al., 2008 ], which may cause other ionospheric longitudinal variations and their seasonal dependences.”
• Tropospheric tides from 80 to 400 km: Propagation, interannual variability, and solar cycle effects (2009, methodology): “The uncertainties of the SABER and TIDI tidal diagnostics are unaffected by these updates: DE3 temperature error is 2 K [Forbes et al., 2008] and the DE3 wind accuracy (precision) is about 10% (1 m/s) as detailed by Oberheide et al.”
• Ionospheric variability due to planetary waves and tides for solar minimum conditions (2010, methodology): “…and 4, and terdiurnal wave number 5 identified from the analysis of temperature measurements by the Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) instrument on board of the Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) satellite [Forbes et al., 2008].”
