Missing driver in the Sun-Earth connection from energetic electron precipitation impacts mesospheric ozone. [PDF]
Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) from the Earth’s outer radiation belt continuously affects the chemical composition of the polar mesosphere. EEP can contribute to catalytic ozone loss in the mesosphere through ionization and enhanced production of

Simulated seasonal impact on middle atmospheric ozone from high-energy electron precipitation related to pulsating aurorae [PDF]
Recent simulation studies have provided evidence that a pulsating aurora (PsA) associated with high-energy electron precipitation is having a clear local impact on ozone chemistry in the polar middle mesosphere.

Will climate change increase ozone depletion from low-energy-electron precipitation? [PDF]
We investigate the effects of a strengthened stratospheric/mesospheric residual circulation on the transport of nitric oxide (NO) produced by energetic particle precipitation. During periods of high geomagnetic activity, energetic electron precipitation (

Observed Loss of Polar Mesospheric Ozone Following Substorm‐Driven Electron Precipitation [PDF]
Several drivers cause precipitation of energetic electrons into the atmosphere. While some of these drivers are accounted for in proxies of energetic electron precipitation (EEP) used in atmosphere and climate models, it is unclear to what extent the ...

Solar Cycle-Modulated Deformation of the Earth–Ionosphere Cavity [PDF]
The Earth–ionosphere cavity resonator is occupied primarily by the electromagnetic radiation of lightning below 100 Hz. The phenomenon is known as Schumann resonances (SR). SR intensity is an excellent indicator of lightning activity and its distribution

Unraveling the Atmospheric Energy Input and Ionization Due To EMIC‐Driven Electron Precipitation From ELFIN Observations [PDF]
Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) from the radiation belts into Earth's atmosphere leads to several profound effects (e.g., enhancement of ionospheric conductivity, possible acceleration of ozone destruction processes). An accurate quantification of

Energetic particle influence on the Earth's atmosphere [PDF]
This manuscript gives an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the effects of energetic particle precipitation (EPP) onto the whole atmosphere, from the lower thermosphere/mesosphere through the stratosphere and troposphere, to the surface.
