SSIES Special Sensor Topside Thermal Plasma Monitor on DMSP_5D-2. The SSI/ES is an improved version of the Special Sensor for Ions and Electrons (SSI/E). The SSI/E instruments measure the ambient electron density and temperatures, the ambient ion density, and the average ion temperature and molecular weight at the DMSP orbital altitude.
