Do Migrating Semidiurnal Tidal Winds From the Lower Atmosphere Control Thermospheric Winds?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Lower atmospheric tides are important for driving the thermospheric and ionospheric structure. The effects of different lower atmospheric migrating semidiurnal tidal fields of neutral density, temperature, and winds on the thermospheric winds are investigated by using the global ionosphere‐thermosphere model with forcing of the tides at the ...

Origin of electron cyclotron maser-induced radio emissions at ultra-cool dwarfs: magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling currents

open access: yes, 2012
A number of ultra-cool dwarfs emit circularly polarised radio waves generated by the electron cyclotron maser instability. In the solar system such radio is emitted from regions of strong auroral magnetic field-aligned currents.

A Physics‐Informed Neural Network Approach to the Gannon Storm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Extreme geomagnetic storms, such as the May 2024 Gannon event, pose significant risks to technological infrastructure, requiring robust forecasting models. Here, we apply Physics‐Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to the Burton equation to model the storm's ring current dynamics by studying the temporal evolution of the SuperMAG SMR index during

Rocket observations of electron-density irregularities in the equatorial ionosphere below 200 km [PDF]

open access: yes
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.

Spatial frequencies associated with the latitudinal structures of ionospheric currents seen by CHAMP satellite

open access: yes, 2015
The CHAMP magnetic field variations during international quiet days of low solar activity period 2008-2009 are investigated. The present paper reports the existence of frequency-peaks < 20 mHz in the compressional component of the magnetic field in ...

Asymmetrically Distributed Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability at Venusian Magnetosphere

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The asymmetric distribution of Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) instability at Venusian ionopause is investigated using a multifluid model. Results show that KH instability distributes asymmetrically, preferentially developing in the −E (anti‐parallel to the interplanetary electric field) hemisphere.

Daytime Ionospheric Density Enhancement Driven by Poleward Neutral Wind Shear Associated With Gravity Waves During the November 2025 Geomagnetic Storm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The threefold daytime electron density increases, along with strong poleward meridional winds exceeding 200 m/s were captured by Sanya Incoherent Scatter Radar (SYISR) during the geomagnetic storm of 12 November 2025. The great ionospheric enhancements were extending to mid‐latitudes over 40° observed by total electron content (TEC) from ...

Equatorial ionospheric irregularities produced by the Brazilian Ionospheric Modification Experiment (BIME)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1989
On two separate evenings in September 1982, rockets were launched into the bottomside equatorial F2 region off the coast of Natal, Brazil, to inject chemicals, consisting of mainly H2O and CO2, to create a hole in ionization. The chemicals were injected near the height where the density gradient was steepest, and at a time when the F2 region was rising

Reconnection Preferentially Accelerates Light Ions at Ganymede's Magnetopause

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Juno's flyby of Ganymede revealed ion composition in its vicinity with the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment–Ion (JADE‐I) instrument. Throughout this flyby, we derive species‐resolved ion density and velocity moments by decomposing the time‐of‐flight data into contributions from individual ion species using species‐dependent fits. At the

Multi-process driven unusually large equatorial perturbation electric fields during the April 2023 geomagnetic storm

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The low latitude ionosphere and thermosphere are strongly disturbed during and shortly after geomagnetic storms. We use novel Jicamarca radar measurements, ACE satellite solar wind, and SuperMAG geomagnetic field observations to study the electrodynamic ...
