Rocket observations of electron-density irregularities in the equatorial ionosphere below 200 km [PDF]
Nike Apache rockets carring instrumentation to measure electron density and its fine structure in the equatorial ionosphere were launched from Chilca, Peru in May and June 1975.

The International Equatorial Electrojet Year
During its sixth scientific assembly in Exeter, United Kingdom, the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA) designated September 1991–March 1993 as the International Equatorial Electrojet Year (IEEY). During this period, intensive and coordinated campaigns on the equatorial electrojet (EEJ) and related aeronomic phenomena are ...

Abstract Valley region irregularities (VRIs) have been previously investigated using radar, ionosonde, and rocket‐borne in situ observations. In this paper, based on a joint observational experiment by lidar and radars performed in Hainan, China, we report a case of low‐latitude VRIs generated in association with uplifted metallic ions for the first ...

Equatorial electrojet dependence on solar activity in the Southeast Asia sector
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

Latitudinal extent of the equatorial electrojet.
Theory is developed for estimating the latitudinal extent of the equatorial electrojet and the worldwide Sq currents including their return paths. It gives good estimates of the latitude of the worldwide Sq current focus as 36±2 degrees, and the latitudinal extent of the worldwide Sq current including its return paths as 84±3 degrees.

A study on the variability of ionospheric total electron content over the East African low-latitude region and storm time ionospheric variations [PDF]
The variation of total electron content (TEC) derived from the International Global Navigation Satellite Systems Service receiver (formerly IGS) over the East African low-latitude region from up to 12 observation stations for the period 2012 was analyzed.

Abstract We incorporate field line curvature (FLC) scattering into a kinetic ring current model two‐way coupled with a global magnetospheric MHD model to investigate its role in SYM‐H prediction and global magnetospheric dynamics. FLC scattering reduces plasma pressure in regions where the ion gyroradius is comparable to the local FLC radius.
