Changes of neutral composition in the thermosphereAn overview is given of the changes in neutral composition that occur in the upper thermosphere during geomagnetic storms. Emphasis is given to solar EUV radiation, upward propagating tides and gravity waves, and coupling between magnetosphere and the ionosphere/thermosphere as the sources of the compositional changes. Present understanding of the poststorm recovery is summarized.
