Scientific paper

Current theoretical models do not satisfactorily explain observed variations of the global exospheric atomic hydrogen density distribution. Differences between the mesospheric upward flux and the Jeans escape mechanism indicate that other escape fluxes affect hydrogen density. Observations of latitudinal depletions and an early morning trough in the exosphere can be attributed to the influence of additional escape mechanisms. These variations of the exospheric hydrogen density distribution seem to be correlated with other observed variations in the atmosphere; however, no straightforward explanation has been proposed to date.
