“…Observations by the Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) and its all-sky type, scanning Doppler imager, reveal that thermospheric winds are more dynamic and responsive to the magnetospheric forcing in both vertical and horizontal components than modeling or statistical studies typically show (Anderson et al, 2012a(Anderson et al, , 2012b(Anderson et al, , 2012cAruliah et al, 2005;Griffin et al, 2008). Mesoscale and small-scale winds have been found in association with auroral structures, such as auroral arcs (Conde et al, 2001;Kosch et al, 2010), poleward expanding aurora after substorm onset , and auroral patches inside pulsating aurora (Oyama et al, 2010(Oyama et al, , 2016. Those findings also suggest that the thermospheric wind has more rapid responses than theories have predicted.…”
