Scientific paper

The Fabry-Perot interferometer on board of the OGO-6 satellite measures the spectral profile of the 630 nm airglow line. The Doppler width leads to a direct measurement of the thermospheric temperature. A careful analysis of the data has been performed. The global thermospheric temperature is represented by a set of coefficients based on the results of an analysis in spherical harmonics. Comparisons with measured temperatures by incoherent scatter ground stations and by N2 density are made. The model refers to quiet and moderate magnetic activity and to high solar activity.
