Description
The NRLMSISE-00 Atmosphere Model block implements the mathematical representation of the 2001 United States Naval Research Laboratory Mass Spectrometer and Incoherent Scatter Radar Exosphere (NRLMSISE-00) of the MSIS® class model. This block calculates the neutral atmosphere empirical model from the surface to lower exosphere (0 to 1,000,000 meters). When configuring the block for this calculation, you can also take into account the anomalous oxygen, which can affect the satellite drag above 500,000 meters.
Limitations
This block has the limitations of the NRLMSISE-00 model. For more information, see https://ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/.
This block is valid only for altitudes between 0 and 1,000,000 meters (1,000 kilometers).
The F107 and F107A values used to generate the model correspond to the 10.7 cm radio flux at the actual distance of the Earth from the Sun rather than the radio flux at 1 AU. This site provide both classes of values: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/stp/space-weather/solar-data/solar-features/solar-radio/noontime-flux/penticton/
