Walker, J.C.G., 1965: Analytic representation of upper atmosphere densities based on Jacchia's static diffusion Models. J. Atmos. Sci., 22, 462-463, doi:10.1175/1520-0469(1965)022<0462:AROUAD>2.0.CO;2.

In a recent paper, Jaccia (1964) has presented a set of models of the upper atmosphere designed to reproduce the satellite drag density while requiring the minimum amount of tabulation. I wish to call attention to a minor modification of Jacchia's procedure which eliminates the numerical integration of the diffusive equilibirum equations, yielding a completely analytic representation of upper atmosphere densities.
