Abstract This paper investigates the dynamic evolution of a storm‐time “Super‐EPB” event over China on 1 December 2023 (Kp ≤ 7, SYM/H ≥ −130 nT) using multi‐instrument observations. Occurring near sunset as the IMF‐Bz abruptly turned southward, with auroral extension to midlatitudes, the “Super‐EPB” extended to 40°N with an apex height of ∼2,460 km ...

Proposed Resolution to the Solar Open Magnetic Flux Problem
The solar magnetic fields emerging from the photosphere into the chromosphere and corona are comprised of a combination of closed (field lines with both ends rooted at the Sun) and open (field lines with only one end at the Sun) fields.

Ionospheric Scintillation Induced by Hot Flow Anomalies via Particle Precipitation
Abstract Ionospheric scintillation disrupts trans‐ionospheric radio signals and represents significant challenges for critical communication and navigation systems. Here we document that hot flow anomalies (HFAs), transient disturbances formed near Earth's bow shock, can contribute to scintillation near the cusp.

Schumann Resonance Frequency Increase Following Recurrent Solar Wind Stream Onsets
Abstract Recurrent high‐speed streams and corotating interaction regions (HSS/CIRs) are common solar‐wind drivers, but their influence on Schumann resonance (SR) frequencies remains poorly quantified. We analyzed 173 threshold‐defined HSS/CIR proxy onsets using superposed epoch composites, bootstrap uncertainty, and a month‐matched random‐epoch null ...

Abstract This study presents a high‐resolution three‐dimensional global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the historic geomagnetic storm of 10–11 May 2024, using observational data for the ACE solar wind input. This extreme event was characterized by intense solar wind dynamic pressure (∼50 nPa) and exceptionally strong interplanetary magnetic ...

Abstract Ultra‐low frequency (ULF) waves with frequencies 10–140 s are a characteristic feature of the foreshock, playing important roles in transient formation, shock reformation, and particle acceleration. We utilize 23 years of Cluster data to map ULF wave power and compressibility in the vicinity of Earth's bow shock, combining Cluster data with ...

Characterization of High‐Frequency GNSS Total Electron Content Variations
Abstract Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)–derived Total Electron Content (TEC) is widely used to investigate ionospheric variability, but has primarily been applied to low‐frequency fluctuations. Here we present a long‐term statistical characterization of high‐frequency (30–500 mHz) TEC variations using multi‐constellation GNSS data from 11 ...

Convection Velocity Covariance Estimated From SuperDARN Observations
Abstract An examination of the spatial covariance of the high‐latitude plasma convection velocity is presented. The covariance was calculated from patterns of plasma convection estimated from Super Dual Auroral Radar Network observations. The convection patterns were calculated on a magnetic latitude—magnetic local time grid from 55° ${}^{\circ}$ to 88.

Abstract Ionospheric currents and their associated magnetic perturbations are difficult to predict due to the high variability of their driving mechanisms. In addition, the 3D structure of the currents is challenging to unravel due to the lack of direct observations within the current flow region, particularly in the E $E$‐layer.

Nighttime Westward Equatorial Electrojet Observed During the January 2026 Geomagnetic Storm
Abstract The equatorial electrojet (EEJ) is a narrow band of zonal electric current flowing in the E‐region ionosphere within approximately ±2° $\pm 2{}^{\circ}$ latitude of the magnetic equator. At night, the EEJ is generally considered very weak because of low ionospheric conductivity.
