Simulation study for ground-based Ku-band microwave observations of ozone and hydroxyl in the polar middle atmosphere [PDF]
The Ku-band microwave frequencies (10.70–14.25 GHz) overlap emissions from ozone (O3) at 11.072 GHz and hydroxyl radical (OH) at 13.441 GHz.

Impact of EMIC‐wave driven electron precipitation on the radiation belts and the atmosphere [PDF]
In recent years there has been a growing body of direct experimental evidence demonstrating electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves driving energetic electron precipitation (EEP) at unexpectedly low, sub‐MeV energies — as low as only a few hundred keV.

Response of the low-latitude D region ionosphere to extreme space weather event of 14–16 December 2006 [PDF]
The response of the D region low-latitude ionosphere has been examined for extreme space weather event of 14–16 December 2006 associated with a X1.5 solar flare and an intense geomagnetic storm (Dst = 146 nT) using VLF signals from Northwest Cape ...

Techniques to determine the quiet day curve for a long period of subionospheric VLF observations [PDF]
Very low frequency (VLF) transmissions propagating between the conducting Earth's surface and lower edge of the ionosphere have been used for decades to study the effect of space weather events on the upper atmosphere.

Energetic particle precipitation: A major driver of the ozone budget in the Antarctic upper stratosphere [PDF]
Geomagnetic activity is thought to affect ozone and, possibly, climate in polar regions via energetic particle precipitation (EPP) but observational evidence of its importance in the seasonal stratospheric ozone variation on long time scales is still ...

Exceptional middle latitude electron precipitation detected by balloon observations: implications for atmospheric composition [PDF]
Energetic particle precipitation leads to ionization in the Earth\u27s atmosphere, initiating the formation of active chemical species which destroy ozone and have the potential to impact atmospheric composition and dynamics down to the troposphere.

Quantitative analysis of nighttime effects of radiation belt energetic electron precipitation on the D-region ionosphere during lower solar activity periods [PDF]
Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) from the Earth's radiation belts can ionize neutral molecules in the D-region ionosphere (60–90 km altitude), significantly influencing the conductivity and chemical species therein.

Late Ediacaran Redox Stability and Metazoan Evolution [PDF]
The Neoproterozoic arrival of animals fundamentally changed Earth's biological and geochemical trajectory. Since the early description of Ediacaran and Cambrian animal fossils, a vigorous debate has emerged about the drivers underpinning their seemingly ...
