Individual Option Analysis#

Comprehensive analysis for each of the 14 main MSIS options. Each example provides detailed physical explanations and multi-dimensional visualization showing how turning OFF a specific option affects atmospheric density across altitude, geography, and time.

Each analysis includes:

  • Altitude profiles: Seasonal and diurnal effects from 100-500 km

  • Geographic maps: Global latitude vs longitude patterns at 300 km

  • Diurnal cycles: 24-hour variations at a fixed location

  • Seasonal cycles: Annual variations throughout the year
