Counter equatorial electrojet and overshielding after substorm onset: Global MHD simulation study [PDF]
By performing a global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation, we have demonstrated for the first time that an electrojet at the dayside magnetic equator can be reversed and an overshielding condition can be established in the inner magnetosphere after ...

Equatorial Ionospheric VTEC Perturbations During the 21 June 2020 Solar Eclipse
The annular solar eclipse of 21 June 2020, provided a valuable opportunity to examine the ionospheric response to celestial events. This study analyzes variations in Vertical Total electron content (VTEC) over the equatorial region using data from the ...

The equatorial E-region and its plasma instabilities: a tutorial [PDF]
In this short tutorial we first briefly review the basic physics of the E-region of the equatorial ionosphere, with emphasis on the strong electrojet current system that drives plasma instabilities and generates strong plasma waves that are easily ...

Prompt penetration effects on Equatorial Electrojet from the Indian sector
The morphology of prompt penetration effects (PP) in the Equatorial Electrojet (EEJ) at Vencode (VEN, Geomagnetic latitude 0.29ºN) was studied using 5-min samples of EEJ and interplanetary Ey component data from 2011 to 2015.

Meridional equatorial electrojet current in the American sector [PDF]
Huancayo is the only equatorial electrojet station where the daytime increase of horizontal geomagnetic field (H) is associated with a simultaneous increase of eastward geomagnetic field (Y). It is shown that during the counter electrojet period when ∆

On the origin of pre-reversal enhancement of the zonal equatorial electric field [PDF]
In November 2004, a large and variable interplanetary electric field (IEF) was felt in the reference frame of the Earth. This electric field penetrated to the magnetic equator and, when the Jicamarca Radio Observatory (JRO) was in the dusk sector ...
