Equatorial Plasma Bubbles: A Review

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
The equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) phenomenon is an important component of space weather as the ionospheric irregularities that develop within EPBs can have major detrimental effects on the operation of satellite-based communication and navigation ...

The Morphology of Equatorial Plasma Bubbles – a review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015
Plasma bubbles that occur in the equatorial F-region make up one of the most distinguishing phenomena in the ionosphere. Bubbles represent plasma depletions with respect to the background ionosphere, and are the major source of electron density ...

A ROTI-Aided Equatorial Plasma Bubbles Detection Method [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
In this study, we present a Rate of Total Electron Content Index (ROTI)-aided equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) detection method based on a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) ionospheric Total Electron Content (TEC).

Zonal velocity of the equatorial plasma bubbles over Kolhapur, India [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
This paper presents the observations of zonal drift velocities of equatorial ionospheric plasma bubbles and their comparison with model values. These velocities are determined by nightglow OI 630.0 nm images.

Effect of magnetic activity on plasma bubbles over equatorial and low-latitude regions in East Asia [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2009
The dependence of plasma bubble occurrence in the eveningside ionosphere, with magnetic activity during the period years 2001–2004, is studied here based on the TEC observations gathered by ground-based GPS receivers which are located in the ...

Generation of enigmatic equatorial ionospheric plasma blobs during the 17 March 2015 super geomagnetic storm period over the Indian region [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
In general, during geomagnetic storm times, equatorial ionospheric plasma bubbles (equivalently plasma depletions) will be generated due to the effect of prompt penetration of magnetosphere-associated disturbed electric fields to the magnetic equatorial ...

On the solar activity dependence of midnight equatorial plasma bubbles during June solstice periods

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics, 2021
The occurrence of midnight Equatorial Plasma Bubbles (EPBs) during the June solstice period of the ascending phase of solar cycle 24, from 2010 to 2014, was studied using data from the 47 MHz Equatorial Atmosphere Radar (EAR) at Kototabang, Indonesia ...

The Impacts of Zonal and Meridional Winds on the Observed Occurrence Rate of Equatorial Plasma Bubbles

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Post‐sunset equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) formation is believe to be influenced by factors including thermospheric neutral winds. This study characterizes pre‐sunset neutral winds observed by ICON on EPB occurrences observed by GOLD over the east ...

Ionospheric Turbulence and the Equatorial Plasma Density Irregularities: Scaling Features and RODI

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
In the framework of space weather, the understanding of the physical mechanisms responsible for the generation of ionospheric irregularities is particularly relevant for their effects on global positioning and communication systems.
