Thermosphere-Ionosphere Issues for DASI - I: Quiescent Variability what are the magnitudes & sources of global quiescent thermosphere-ionosphere (TI) variations? does the quiescent global variability “pre”condition the TI response to space weather events? Diagnostic Wish List global Tn, Un, Vn, r, Ne, Ti, Ui, Vi, Wi, DH, DD, DZ, (?) leverage all ground-based & space-borne measurements correlative analyses to quantify wave signatures DASI Deployment Strategies develop/assess data assimilation models (e.g., GAIM; GSWM-DA); use DA to quantify optimum data requirements (quality-location-cadence) for fielding new instruments correlative/interpretive numerical modeling efforts

Thermosphere-Ionosphere Issues for DASI - II: The TI during Space Weather Events – Tracing the Energy Deposition and the Thermal, Dynamical, and Chemical TI Effects how does the global TI respond to geomagnetic storms? how does the global response vary with altitude? how does the global response vary with time? what are the local responses to Solar Proton Events (SPEs)? do SPEs produce a global response? how deep into the atmosphere do the local and global effects penetrate? how does the thermosphere affect the ionosphere?…the magnetosphere?
