A statistical analysis of the so-called "Madrigal" database extant at the Millstone Hill Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR) Facility, including data from seven Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR) sites (Arecibo PR, Millstone Hill MA, Sondrestrom Greenland, Svalbard Norway, Tromso Norway, St. Santin France, and Shigaraki Japan) is performed. The goal is the establishment of an empirically grounded, climatological model of the thermosphere, and associated models of thermospheric and ionospheric variability. These models produce both neutral thermospheric and ionospheric parameters (from 200 km to 600 km), including neutral temperature (Tn), exobase temperature (Tc), O density ([O]), meridional neutral winds (Um), electron density (Ne), and the ion and electron temperatures (Ti and Te). Local models corresponding to ISR locations are produced, and regional models for Eastern North America and for Western Europe are developed.

所谓的“牧歌”数据库现存的磨石山非相干散射雷达（ISR）设施，包括数据从七个非相干散射雷达（ISR）网站（阿雷西博PR，磨石山MA，Sondrestrom格陵兰岛，挪威斯瓦尔巴群岛，挪威特罗姆瑟，法国圣戈班，日本Shigaraki）的统计分析。 目标是建立一个基于经验的热层气候学模型以及相关的热层和电离层可变性模型。 这些模型产生中性热层和电离层参数（从200公里到600公里），包括中性温度（Tn）、外底温度（Tc）、O密度（[O]）、纬向中性风（Um）、电子密度（Ne）以及离子和电子温度（Ti和Te）。 本地模型对应的ISR位置，北美东部和西欧的区域模型的开发。
