Scientific paper
During April 15-24, 2002, disturbances originating on the Sun were manifested in the upper atmosphere of Earth through the deposition of particle, field, and photon energy. In the present work, the response of total mass density near 410 km is investigated through STAR accelerometer measurements on the CHAMP satellite. Data are available near 1500 LT and 0300 LT from 87°S to 87°N latitude. The latitude vs. time response of the upper atmosphere is thus revealed on both the day and night sides of the Earth. Perturbations over quiet levels of order 50-100% occur. A variety of density enhancement and depletion structures are also apparent at high latitudes.
