Dayside Polar Cap Aurora and Their Connection to NBZ Currents
Abstract During northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions, magnetic reconnection between the Earth's magnetosphere and the IMF takes place on high latitudes, causing the auroral oval to contract. During those times several auroral structures may appear inside the polar cap, such as cusp aurora, high latitude dayside aurora (HiLDA) and ...

Abstract A key process in solar‐terrestrial interactions is magnetic reconnection at the magnetopause. In addition to in situ observations of plasma entry at the magnetopause, some of the important global aspects of magnetic reconnection are addressed using plasma observations in the Earth's magnetospheric cusp region. Ions injected at the magnetopause

A Multi‐Event Comparison of dB/dt Resulting From Omega Band Aurora
Abstract Omega bands are an auroral form occurring in the dawn sector which cause magnetic perturbations on the ground as they drift eastwards. If these changes in the magnetic field are large, omega bands can become a space weather hazard as the corresponding geomagnetically induced currents have the potential to cause damage to ground based ...

Abstract Lava tubes are subsurface volcanic conduits formed during effusive basaltic eruptions and are considered key targets for planetary exploration. Orbital remote sensing on the Moon and Mars has identified numerous collapse pits interpreted as possible surface expressions of underlying lava tube systems. However, the limited resolution of current

Radio‐Quiet Ionosonde Observations for Monitoring Absorption in the HF Band
Abstract This work presents a technique to monitor ionospheric absorption in the HF radio band using ionosondes. For this purpose, the ionosondes were run in a radio‐silent mode, recording not reflections of their own emitted signals but oblique signals from transmitters of opportunity.

Abstract This study quantitatively assesses the drivers of the Equatorial Ionization Anomaly (EIA) morphology and latitudinal shifts over Southeast Asia during the December solstice. We use a 27‐year ionospheric data set (1998–2024) of total electron content (TEC) and F2‐layer peak electron density (NmF2) under geomagnetically quiet conditions.

Predicting Geomagnetic Activity in the Ascending and Declining Phases of the Solar Cycle
Abstract Most predictions of space climate, that is, the long‐term behavior of the solar‐terrestrial environment, have focused on forecasting the 11‐year sunspot cycle. Geomagnetic activity, on the other hand, has mainly been predicted in shorter, space weather timescales of up to days to weeks.

Orbital Decay of the Three SNIPE CubeSats During the Super Geomagnetic Storm in May 2024
Abstract The Mother's Day (Gannon) geomagnetic superstorm of May 2024 produced extreme thermospheric heating and expansion, resulting in enhanced atmospheric drag on low Earth orbiting (LEO) satellites. We investigate storm‐time thermospheric drag and density variability using three satellites of the Small‐scale magNetospheric and Ionospheric Plasma ...

Models and predictions of Earth’s magnetic field based on geomagnetic observatory data
Observations of the geomagnetic field taken at Earth’s surface are processed to construct a set of continuous models of the geomagnetic field and its secular variation from 1956 to 2033.

Geomagnetic Energy Approach to Space Debris Deorbiting in a Low Earth Orbit
The space debris removal problem needs to be solved urgently. Over 70% of debris is distributed between the 500 km and 1000 km low Earth orbits (LEO), and existing methods may be theoretically feasible but are not the high-efficiency and low-consumption ...
