“…Compared with the plasmaspheric density distribution models, the plasmapause models are more mature (Carpenter & Anderson, 1992; Cho et al., 2015; He et al., 2017; Liu et al., 2015; Moldwin et al., 2002; O'Brien, 2003; Verbanac et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2017; Zheng et al., 2019). In terms of plasmaspheric density models, it can be divided into the following three categories: the density distribution models in the MEP (Berube et al., 2005; Carpenter & Anderson, 1992; Chu, Bortnik, Li, Ma, Angelopoulos, & Thorne, 2017; Sheeley et al., 2001; Zhelavskaya et al., 2017, 2021), the field‐aligned electron density distribution model (Huang et al., 2004; Ozhogin et al., 2012; Tu et al., 2006) and the global plasmaspheric electron density model (Chu, Bortnik, Li, Ma, Denton, et al., 2017; Gallagher et al., 2000).…”
