The International Equatorial Electrojet Year

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1992
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 ...

Upwelling Metallic Ions Producing Valley Region Irregularities Over Low Latitude During the 2025 New Year Magnetic Storm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
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

open access: yesAntarctic 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

open access: yesEarth, 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 ...

Latitudinal extent of the equatorial electrojet.

open access: yesJournal of geomagnetism and geoelectricity, 1985
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.

Rapid Reversal of Hemispheric Asymmetry in the Intensity of EIA Crests During the Geomagnetic Storm of 23 April 2023: A Unique Observation From GOLD

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract This study, using the peak electron density of Ionospheric F‐region from the Global‐scale Observations of the Limb and Disk reports, for the first time, a unique phenomenon: the rapid reversal of the intensity of the Equatorial Ionization Anomaly (EIA) crests between the hemispheres during the main phase of 23 April 2023, geomagnetic storm ...

A study on the variability of ionospheric total electron content over the East African low-latitude region and storm time ionospheric variations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.

Self‐Regulating Feedback Between Field Line Curvature Scattering, Ring Current Pressure, and Magnetic Configuration

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
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.
