Numerical Investigations of Low‐Latitude Ground Magnetic Fields Due To Cavity Mode Oscillations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Pi2 oscillations are known to be associated with cavity mode oscillations (CMOs) in the inner magnetosphere at low latitudes. CMOs can also be excited by interplanetary shocks on the dayside. We present results from a global linear MHD wave model in spherical coordinates that allows us to analyze these waves at equatorial latitudes.

Understanding the Evolution of Molecules in Space: Implications for Astrophysics, Astrochemistry, and Astrobiology

, 2009
The past 40 years have shown that, rather than hostile and barren, space is seething with dust, ices, and molecules evolving through time by a variety of intricate chemical processes.

Connections Between Stratospheric GWs, the Polar Vortex, and MSTIDs From Longitudinally Distinct Regions During Nine Arctic Winters

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Midlatitude medium‐scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs) are a common source of ionospheric variability that may influence GNSS‐based positioning and can disrupt HF‐communication channels. Here, we present a comprehensive nine‐winter analysis (2014–2023) that establishes a robust connection between stratospheric gravity waves (GWs)

On the Effects of the Solar Wind Structure in the Global Distribution of dBH/dt ${\text{dB}}_{H}/\text{dt}$ Spikes During Geomagnetic Storms

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Variations in the solar wind, particularly those associated with interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) and high‐speed streams (HSSs), drive geomagnetic disturbances that produce rapid changes in the ground magnetic field. These variations, commonly quantified by the time derivative of the horizontal magnetic field dBH/dt $\left({\text ...

Medium‐Scale Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances Induced by Secondary Gravity Waves Associated With Record‐Breaking Heavy Rainfall in August 2021 Over Kyushu, Japan

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract This study reconstructs a multistep gravity wave (GW) pathway, from the generation of primary GWs by deep convection in the troposphere to the generation of secondary GWs that drive semi‐concentric medium‐scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs) in the ionosphere, during the record‐breaking heavy rainfall over Kyushu, Japan, in August

Cosmic Ray Anisotropy Generated by the June 22nd 2015 Interplanetary Events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract On 22 June 2015, the near Earth interplanetary space was perturbed by a series of high‐speed streamers and interplanetary coronal mass ejections associated with an active region and two low‐latitude coronal holes. The interaction of these disturbances gave rise to the complex solar wind structure observed at 1 au.

Intra‐Tessera Plains: Implications of Their Radar Properties for Surface Processes on Venus

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Intra‐tessera plains are radar‐dark plains deposits that occur within tesserae. Their emplacement mechanism(s) and composition are poorly constrained, though they are hypothesized to be basaltic lava flows. Here, we map intra‐tessera plains within 16 different tesserae spanning various latitudes and elevations.

Coupled Gas and Mineral Chemistry in a 60‐Day Venus Weathering Experiment at the Glenn Extreme Environments Rig (GEER)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Investigations of the venusian surface suggest chemical alteration (weathering) of rocks in contact with a hot, high‐pressure atmosphere. This alteration was anticipated based on mineral stability considerations and has been supported by laboratory experiments conducted under Venus surface conditions.

The Role of Chlorate‐Driven Oxidative Weathering in Shaping Clay Deposits on Mars

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Oxidized clays and the widespread Al/Si‐over‐Fe/Mg stratigraphy on Mars imply prolonged water‐rock interactions and efficient oxidative weathering despite the largely anoxic conditions of Early Mars when most deposits formed during the climate optimum.
