On 10 May 2024, a severe G5 geomagnetic storm—the most intense of solar cycle 25—significantly disturbed the global ionosphere. This study presents a comprehensive analysis using multi‐instrument observations, including ground‐based measurements from BDS‐

Vertical gradients of neutral winds observed by ICON and estimated by the Horizontal Wind Model during the geomagnetic storm on August 26−28, 2021 [PDF]
The Michelson Interferometer for Global High-resolution Thermospheric Imaging (MIGHTI) onboard the Ionospheric Connection Explorer (ICON) satellite offers the opportunity to investigate the altitude profile of thermospheric winds.

We present an analysis of thermal and dynamical structures in the mesopause and lower thermosphere (MLT) region (82–106 km) using ∼1,870 hr of sodium (Na) lidar observations at Yuzhong (36.0°N, 104.2°E) from March 2023 to May 2025.

HF Radar Observations and Modeling of the Impact of the 8 April 2024 Total Solar Eclipse on the Ionosphere-Thermosphere System [PDF]
The path of totality of the 8 April 2024 solar eclipse traversed the fields-of-view of four US SuperDARN radars. This rare scenario provided an excellent opportunity to monitor the large-scale ionospheric response to the eclipse.

Line-of-Sight Winds and Doppler Effect Smearing in ACE-FTS Solar Occultation Measurements [PDF]
Line-of-sight wind profiles are derived from Doppler shifts in infrared solar occultation measurements from the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment Fourier transform spectrometers (ACE-FTS), the primary instrument on SCISAT, a satellite-based mission for ...

HL‐TWiM Empirical Model of High‐Latitude Upper Thermospheric Winds [PDF]
We present an empirical model of thermospheric winds (High‐latitude Thermospheric Wind Model [HL‐TWiM]) that specifies F region high‐latitude horizontal neutral winds as a function of day of year, latitude, longitude, local time, and geomagnetic activity.

Inferring neutral winds in the ionospheric transition region from atmospheric-gravity-wave traveling-ionospheric-disturbance (AGW-TID) observations with the EISCAT VHF radar and the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster [PDF]
Atmospheric gravity waves and traveling ionospheric disturbances can be observed in the neutral atmosphere and the ionosphere at a wide range of spatial and temporal scales.

Neutral winds and tides over South Africa [PDF]
This thesis presents the first results of a climatology of nighttime thermospheric neutral winds between February 2018 and January 2019 measured by a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) in Sutherland, South Africa (32.2°S, 20.48°E; geomagnetic latitude: 40 ...

Climatology of thermospheric neutral winds over Oukaïmeden Observatory in Morocco [PDF]
In order to explore coupling between the thermosphere and ionosphere and to address the lack of data relating to thermospheric neutral winds and temperatures over the African sector, a new system of instruments was installed at the Oukaïmeden ...
