Scientific paper

A neutral mass spectrometer on the lower altitude satellite of the Dynamics Explorer program is providing observations of compositional variability in the thermosphere. The 90 deg inclination of the satellite orbit provides excellent coverage over the polar caps. Two data sets, one in the Southern Hemisphere and the other in the Northern, are used to further illustrate the strong magnetic control of some of the heat and momentum sources at high latitudes and the complex morphology that results.
