Dynamic Evolution of a Storm‐Time “Super‐EPB” Event Over China on the Magnetically Disturbed Night of 01 December 2023

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This paper investigates the dynamic evolution of a storm‐time “Super‐EPB” event over China on 1 December 2023 (Kp ≤ 7, SYM/H ≥ −130 nT) using multi‐instrument observations. Occurring near sunset as the IMF‐Bz abruptly turned southward, with auroral extension to midlatitudes, the “Super‐EPB” extended to 40°N with an apex height of ∼2,460 km ...

PALACE v1.0: Paranal Airglow Line And Continuum Emission model [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
Below about 2.3 µm, the nighttime emission of the Earth's atmosphere is dominated by non-thermal radiation. Excluding aurorae, the emission is caused by chemical reaction chains that are driven by the daytime photolysis and photoionisation of ...

Electron‐Impact Excitation of N2 Is Insufficient to Produce the NO2 Continuum in STEVE

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The most studied hypothesis for the continuum emission of Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement (STEVE) is the NO2 ${\text{NO}}_{2}$ continuum. The ion‐impact pathway for this emission was recently shown to be too slow by a few orders of magnitude. In this work, we evaluate the electron‐impact pathway.

Response of Thermospheric Nitric Oxide (NO) Cooling During Events of Strong Solar Wind Pressure

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) infrared emissions are a notable indicator for varying thermospheric energy budget during geomagnetic storms while the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) is southward. In this study, we present the first investigation on the response of NO cooling emissions during northward IMF conditions.

Faint Diffuse 557.7‐nm Emissions Equatorward of the Auroral Oval: Conjugate Observations by Ground Airglow Imagers and the Arase Satellite

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract At subauroral latitudes, discrete auroras, such as strong thermal emission velocity enhancement and stable auroral red arcs, have been extensively studied. On the other hand, diffuse emissions at subauroral latitudes have not been studied well.

OI 630 nm Airglow Observed From Space as a Diagnostic of Nighttime Low‐Latitude Ionospheric Dynamics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the nighttime morphology of the bottomside F region (∼250 km) at low latitudes using 630 nm airglow measurements from the Visible and Infrared Spectral Imager (VISI) aboard the Ionosphere, Mesosphere, Upper Atmosphere, and Plasmasphere (IMAP) mission on the International Space Station. For this purpose, we analyzed IMAP/

Heater‐induced ionization inferred from spectrometric airglow measurements

, 2014
Spectrographic airglow measurements were made during an ionospheric modification experiment at High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program on 12 March 2013. Artificial airglow enhancements at 427.8, 557.7, 630.0, 777.4, and 844.6 nm were observed.

Registering upper atmosphere parameters in East Siberia with Fabry–Perot Interferometer KEO Scientific “Arinae”

Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2017
We describe the Fabry—Perot interfero-meter designed to study Earth’s upper atmosphere. We propose a modification of the existing data processing method for determining the Doppler shift and Doppler widening and also for separating the observed line ...

Key Parameters for the Ionospheric Detection of Tsunamis From the 29 July 2025 Kamchatka Event

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract It has been demonstrated that tsunamis generate internal gravity waves (GWs) detectable in the ionosphere within 20–60 min after their generation at the ocean surface. Despite numerous simulation and observation studies on ionospheric signatures of tsunamis, the detection of Co‐tsunamic Ionospheric Disturbances (CTIDs) and distinguishing them ...

Nitrogen oxides and the airglow

, 2021
The chemospheric processes lead to various possibilities for description of the contribution of nitrogen oxides in the airglow. An excitation of the Vegard-Kaplan system is indicated when nitric oxide is formed by a three-body collision process involving
