Forecasting Equatorial Plasma Bubbles From Precursor TEC Signatures Observed by C/NOFS
Abstract This study investigates the potential of localized total electron content (TEC) perturbation measurements, possibly associated with bottomside upwelling of the F‐layer, as precursors for forecasting ionospheric plasma irregularities, particularly the equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs).

Abstract Valley region irregularities (VRIs) have been previously investigated using radar, ionosonde, and rocket‐borne in situ observations. In this paper, based on a joint observational experiment by lidar and radars performed in Hainan, China, we report a case of low‐latitude VRIs generated in association with uplifted metallic ions for the first ...

Photometric Studies of Auroral Luminosity and its Connection with Some Atmosphere Ionization Phenomena [PDF]
The auroral radiation, 3914 AO, received from the entire sky on a horizontal diffusing plate was monitored continuously during the nights of 1955-56 and 1956-57. The 1955-56 data and part of the 1956-57 data were used to obtain a diurnal curve for the

Abstract F‐region bottom‐type scattering layers (BSLs) occurring over equatorial and low latitudes may act as the precursor of plasma bubbles, usually observed by narrow‐beam very high frequency radars. However, their spatial features remain unknown due to the radar narrow field‐of‐view.

Abstract Dielectric anisotropy in ice alters the propagation of polarized radio waves, so polarimetric radar sounding can be used to survey anisotropic properties of ice masses. Ice anisotropy is either intrinsic, associated with ice‐crystal orientation fabric (COF), or extrinsic, associated with material heterogeneity, such as bubbles, fractures, and ...

GPS scintillation and irregularities at the front of an ionization tongue in the nightside polar ionosphere [PDF]
In this paper we study a tongue of ionization (TOI) on 31 October 2011 which stretched across the polar cap from the Canadian dayside sector to Svalbard in the nightside ionosphere. The TOI front arrived over Svalbard around 1930 UT. We have investigated

Abstract Ocean surface wave climates are shaped by both atmospheric forcing and underlying ocean conditions. Variability in open‐ocean wave heights subsequently reflects complex interactions occurring across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales.

New sounding modes for SuperDARN HF radars [PDF]
We have developed several new sounding modes for SuperDARN HF radars to increase operation flexibility ("Nasu" mode, etc.) as well as to obtain both higher time resolution special camping beams data and global convection patterns simultaneously ...

Are Cusp‐Aligned Arcs the Equivalent of Auroral Streamers in a Closed Magnetosphere?
Abstract We present the first observations of a 3‐hour quasi‐periodic intensification of the polar auroras during a prolonged interval of strongly‐northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). This takes the form of a localized spot of auroral emission that appears near the pole which subsequently spreads sunward and antisunward to produce a sun ...
