Van Allen Probes Observations of a Fundamental Poloidal Wave in the Plasmasphere
Abstract All past spacecraft observations of fundamental poloidal Alfvén (P1) waves attributed to ion drift resonance have been made outside the plasmasphere. In this study, we present the first spacecraft observations of a plasmaspheric P1 wave driven by that resonance.

Surface fault ruptures associated with the 14 April foreshock (Mj 6.5) of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence, southwest Japan [PDF]
The 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence was a rare event worldwide in that the surface ruptures associated with the largest foreshock (Mj 6.5) of 21:26 (JST), 14 April ruptured again during the mainshock (Mj 7.3) of 01:25 (JST), 16 April. The 14 April Mj 6.

Strong foreshock signal preceding the L'Aquila (Italy) earthquake (Mw 6.3) of 6 April 2009 [PDF]
We used the earthquake catalogue of INGV extending from 1 January 2006 to 30 June 2009 to detect significant changes before and after the 6 April 2009 L'Aquila mainshock (Mw=6.3) in the seismicity rate, r (events/day), and in b-value.

A case study of large-amplitude ULF waves in the Martian foreshock
Foreshock ultralow frequency (ULF) waves constitute a significant physical phenomenon in the plasma environment of terrestrial planets. The occurrence of these waves, associated with backstreaming particles reflected and accelerated at the bow shock ...

The May 2024 Storm: The Cusps and Dayside Magnetopause in Simulated Soft X‐Rays
Abstract The coronal mass ejection (CME) arriving at Earth on 10 May 2024 caused the most intense geomagnetic storm in the last two decades, resulting in highly unusual cusp and magnetopause dynamics. We simulate soft X‐Ray emission due to solar wind charge exchange with exospheric neutrals to image the global dayside dynamics, focusing on the impact ...

Ion Behavior at Shocklets: A Case Study of MMS Observations
The existence of shocklets, a kind of solitary structure, has been demonstrated in the Earth's foreshock regions for decades. Their formation and evolution are believed to be controlled by ions. However, the detailed behavior of ions at them has not been

Abstract We investigate co‐ and post‐seismic P‐wave velocity (Vp) changes following the July 2019 Mw 7.1 Ridgecrest strike‐slip earthquake using time‐lapse tomography from 50,345 P‐wave arrivals (2011–2024). Co‐seismically, Vp changes correspond to the volumetric strain change lobes of the earthquake, increasing in compressional zones and decreasing in

Foreshocks and aftershocks occurred before and after the ML6.8 (Mw7.0) earthquake in eastern Taiwan on 18 September 2022. We explore the epicentral distribution and temporal variations for the mainshock, foreshocks, and aftershocks.

Characteristics of Foreshock Subsolar Compressive Structures
Abstract The turbulent foreshock region upstream of the quasi‐parallel bow shock is dominated by waves and reflected particles that interact with each other and create a large number of different foreshock transients. The structures with the enhanced magnetic field, Short Large Amplitude Magnetic Structures, and density spikes named ...

Abstract Slow slip events (SSEs) represent an aseismic transient slip mode that repeats quasi‐periodically, near or partially overlapping with the megathrust earthquake zone. However, the process of stress interaction between SSEs and earthquake zones is not clearly understood.
