Abstract Sporadic E (Es) layer plays essential role in ionosphere‐atmosphere coupling. Theoretical simulations show that the atmospheric gravity waves (GWs) in the lower thermosphere are the main modulatory source on Es dynamics at small spatial scales and short periods.

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

Abstract Incoherent scatter radar probing of the topside F‐region ionosphere with reduced electron densities residing at relatively large radar ranges requires the use of uncoded long pulse (ULP) transmissions. In these ULP measurements the range resolution is necessarily poor, rendering the inference of ionospheric state parameters such as composition,

This study presents a statistical analysis of the ionospheric irregularities and topside ionospheric scintillation at low and middle latitudes by using in situ electron density and upward-looking total electron content data measured by the Swarm ...

Abstract Atmospheric gravity waves (GWs) are believed to transport energy and momentum between different regions of the atmosphere. Historically, observations of these waves from both ground and space have been relatively abundant at altitudes up to the lower thermosphere, and somewhat less abundant in the upper thermosphere and F‐region ionosphere ...

Recent studies revealed that the long-lasting daytime ionospheric enhancements of Total Electron Content (TEC) were sometimes observed in the Asian sector during the recovery phase of geomagnetic storms (e.g., Lei (J Geophys Res Space Phys 123: 3217–3232,

Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) pose significant challenges to trans‐ionospheric radio communication and navigation systems. Because of their disruptive effects, evaluating and predicting them is key for the development of space systems. The influence of geomagnetic activity on EPBs remains unclear, partly due to limited low‐latitude neutral ...

A brief review of equatorial ionization anomaly and ionospheric irregularities
Following a brief history and progress of ionospheric research, this paper presents a brief review of the recent developments in the understanding of two major phenomena in low and mid latitude ionosphere—the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) and ...

Assessment of the Generation of Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances by Solar Terminators
Abstract The generation of traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) near solar terminators has been predicted, and several studies have reported the detection of TIDs associated with sunrise. However, there are also observations that do not show TID signatures at sunrise.
