Responses of Field‐Aligned Currents and Equatorial Electrojet to Sudden Decrease of Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure During the March 2023 Geomagnetic Storm

Geophysical Research Letters
We present the observations of field‐aligned currents and the equatorial electrojet during the 23 March 2023 magnetic storm, focusing on the effect of the drastic decrease of the solar wind dynamic pressure occurred during the main phase.

VHF radar observations of the dip equatorial E-region during sunset in the Brazilian sector [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2006
Using the RESCO 50 MHz backscatter radar (2.33° S, 44.2° W, DIP: –0.5), at São Luís, Brazil, we obtained Range Time Intensity (RTI) maps covering the equatorial electrojet heights during daytime and evening. These maps revealed

Jupiter's polar ionospheric flows: measured intensity and velocity variations poleward of the main auroral oval [PDF]

, 2003
Recent analysis of high-resolution spectra of Doppler-shifted H3+ emission from the auroral/polar regions of Jupiter revealed a complex wind system, with a persistent auroral electrojet and strong anti-sunward flows in a region of lesser intensity ...

On the Possibility of Driving the Electron Flux Probabilistic Models by the AE Index

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We present the new probabilistic model of the electron fluxes designed to assess the risks of the spacecraft surface charging for missions with near‐equatorial orbits in the inner magnetosphere. It is a second model developed within a frame of the European Space Agency's activity “Plasma Environment Modeling in the Earth's Magnetosphere ...

Assessing Magnetic Fluctuations Effects in the South American Sector in Relation to Global Variations Using Ksa Index, Kp Index, and Hybrid Formats During Quiet Times Across the Seasons of the 2020 Solar Minimum

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetic indices can be used to quantify variations in geomagnetic activity caused by Sun‐Earth interactions across the magnetosphere and ionosphere. The global Kp index is widely used as a global geomagnetic indicator, but it is based mostly on the Northern Hemisphere with no contributions from South American observatories.

Ionosphere‐Thermosphere Coupling in the Northern Polar Region During the May 2024 Geomagnetic Superstorm

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The May 2024 superstorm, as the most intense geomagnetic storm since 2003, caused a variety of disturbances in the magnetosphere‐ionosphere‐thermosphere system. This study investigates the long‐lasting electron density depletion in the polar region and the underlying ionosphere‐thermosphere coupling, based on a comprehensive set of ...

Magma Storage Below Sabancaya Volcano (Southern Peru) Imaged by Broadband Magnetotellurics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Sabancaya volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in the Central Andes. Its ongoing eruptive process is accompanied by large‐scale deformation, with activation of the Huambo‐Cabanaconde fault system, marked by intense seismicity over an area of about 50 × 30 km2 ${\mathrm{k}\mathrm{m}}^{2}$.

Equatorial electrojet dependence on solar activity in the Southeast Asia sector

Antarctic Record, 2013
A:The equatorial electrojet (EEJ) is a current system caused by the enhanced ionospheric conductivity near the dayside magnetic dip equator. We examined the dependence of the EEJ on solar activity, represented by the 10.7 cm solar radio flux (F10.7). For

An investigation of solar flare effects on equatorial ionosphere and thermosphere using co-ordinated measurements

Earth, Planets and Space, 2019
The response of equatorial ionosphere–thermosphere system to the X3.8 solar flare of January 17, 2005 has been studied using the coordinated measurements of GPS-derived Total Electron Content (TEC), OI 630.0 nm dayglow and magnetic field measurements ...
