Scientific paper

The Global Plasmasphere Ionosphere Density (GPID) model has been developed to simulate the global scale dynamic evolution of the plasmasphere. The primary aim of GPID is to allow the calculation of electron and ion densities from which various parameters, such as Total Electron Content (TEC) along an arbitrary ray path, can be estimated. GPID has recently been updated to include He+, which allows it to simulate the global scale plasmaspheric observations from the Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Imager onboard NASA's Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration (IMAGE) satellite. Direct plasma observations from the Radio Plasma Imager (RPI), also onboard IMAGE, provide both local and remote electron density information. This presentation will show some initial GPID comparisons to data from both the RPI and the EUV Imager, with specific attention in the latter case given to the evolution of the plasmasphere during geomagnetic storms.
