Numerical modeling of the equatorial electrojet UT-variation on the basis of the model GSM TIP [PDF]
In the presented work the results of numerical modeling of the UT-variation of the equatorial electrojet, executed on the basis of the model GSM TIP are presented, taking into account the dynamo electric fields generated by thermospheric winds in a ...

The quiet-time equatorial electrojet and counter-electrojet.
Using ground magnetometer data from several stations near the dip equator, the magnetically quiet-time characteristics of the daytime normal electrojet and the morning and afternoon counter-electrojets are established and illustrated. In particular, the solar cycle, seasonal, longitudinal and day-to-day variations of counter-electrojets as well as ...

The field of the equatorial electrojet from CHAMP data [PDF]
We apply a simple linear transform, the along-track second derivative, to four years of scalar and vectorial data from the CHAMP satellite. This transform, reminiscent of techniques used in the interpretation of aeromagnetic surveys, is applied either

Variations of the peak positions in the longitudinal profile of noon-time equatorial electrojet
In this study, the seasonal variations of the EEJ longitudinal profiles were examined based on the full CHAMP satellite magnetic measurements from 2001 to 2010. A total of 7537 satellite noon-time passes across the magnetic dip-equator were analyzed.

Equatorial electrojet at African longitudes: first results from magnetic measurements [PDF]
In the framework of the French participation in the International Equatorial Electrojet Year (IEEY), ten magnetotelluric stations were installed between November 1992 and November 1994 along a 1200-km-long meridian profile, between Lamto (latitude 6.2°

Equatorial scintillations in relation to the development of ionization anomaly [PDF]
International audienceThe irregularities in the electron density distribution of the ionosphere over the equatorial region frequently disrupt space-based communication and navigation links by causing severe amplitude and phase scintillations of signals ...

Signatures of storm sudden commencements in geomagnetic H, Y and Z fields at Indian observatories during 1958−1992 [PDF]
The work describes an intensive study of storm sudden commencement (SSC) impulses in horizontal (H), eastward (Y) and vertical (Z) fields at four Indian geomagnetic observatories between 1958–1992. The midday maximum of ΔH has been shown to exist even

Up-down asymmetry of type I plasma waves in the equatorial electrojet region [PDF]
The up-down asymmetry of the type I plasma waves in the equatorial electrojet region during daytime is investigated. It is shown that the asymmetry is exhibited not only in the vertical direction but also is manifested in the oblique direction (24.6 ...

Abstract Equatorial electrojet (EEJ) and solar quiet (Sq) currents with one vortex each in either hemisphere are key components of the ionospheric dynamo currents, driving geomagnetic diurnal variations observed at Earth's surface. However, the physical coupling between EEJ and Sq westward currents on the polar side of the vortex focus remains poorly ...
