 Abstract: We developed a method to estimate the uncertainty in thermospheric neutral density measurements by assimilating these data into a physics-based model. Thermospheric neutral density is a critical parameter characterizing the upper atmosphere. Neutral density in this region impacts satellites in low Earth orbit through drag. Uncertainty in neutral density results in uncertainty in satellite trajectory calculations. For issues such as collision avoidance, it is important to understand the uncertainty in these measurements. While physics-based models can predict the behavior of the upper atmosphere, their accuracy is limited by our incomplete knowledge of the physical processes and inputs to the system. Data assimilation combines model predictions with measurements according to their uncertainties. In this study, we use the Coupled Thermosphere Ionosphere Plasmasphere with Electrodynamics (CTIPe) model while varying the measurement uncertainty input into the assimilation process to estimate satellite-derived neutral density uncertainty. The method was applied to data from two different missions, CHAMP and Swarm, during quiet geomagnetic conditions. Results from our uncertainty estimation will be presented.
