Planetary Waves Controlling the Effect of Energetic Electron Precipitation on the Northern Polar Vortex [PDF]
Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) forms ozone-depleting nitrogen and hydrogen oxides in the high-latitude middle and upper atmosphere, leading to ozone destruction and temperature enhancement that can strengthen the winter polar vortex.

Long-term determination of energetic electron precipitation into the atmosphere from AARDDVARK subionospheric VLF observations [PDF]
We analyze observations of subionospherically propagating very low frequency (VLF) radio waves to determine outer radiation belt energetic electron precipitation (EEP) flux magnitudes.

Energetic Electron Precipitation During Slot Region Filling Events [PDF]
The slot region marks the equatorward boundary of the energetic electron precipitation (EEP). There are, however, numerous reports where energetic electrons cross these boundaries and fill the slot region.

Energetic Electron Precipitation From the Radiation Belts: Geomagnetic and Solar Wind Proxies for Precipitation Flux Magnitudes [PDF]
Previously the geomagnetic Ap index has been used as a proxy to produce empirical energetic electron precipitation (EEP) forcing representations suitable for incorporation into coupled-climate model runs.

D-region impact area of energetic electron precipitation during pulsating aurora [PDF]
A total of 10 radars from the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) in Antarctica were used to estimate the spatial area over which energetic electron precipitation (EEP) impacts the D-region ionosphere during pulsating aurora (PsA) events. We use

Mesospheric ionization during substorm growth phase
Many studies have been conducted about the impact of energetic charged particles on the atmosphere during geomagnetically active times, while quiet time effects are poorly understood. We identified two energetic electron precipitation (EEP) events during

Effects of enhanced downwelling of NOx on Antarctic upper-stratospheric ozone in the 21st century [PDF]
Ozone is expected to fully recover from the chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) era by the end of the 21st century. Furthermore, because of anthropogenic climate change, a cooler stratosphere decelerates ozone loss reactions and is projected to lead to a super ...
