Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Ionospheric Narrowband and Wideband HF Soundings for Communications Purposes: A Review
High Frequency (HF) communications through ionospheric reflection is a widely used technique specifically for maritime, aeronautical, and emergency services communication with remote areas due to economic and management reasons, and also as backup system.

Long-term trends of foF2 independent of geomagnetic activity [PDF]
A detailed analysis of the foF2 data at a series of ionospheric stations is performed to reveal long-term trends independent of the long-term changes in geomagnetic activity during the recent decades (nongeomagnetic trends). The method developed by

Global observations of ROTI by using ground-based GNSS receivers
Diurnal, monthly, and solar activity variations in L-band signal fluctuations are examined by ROTI (Rate Of Tec Index) derived from measurements of worldwide ground-based GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers in 2000, 2009, and 2013 ...

Multi-layer structure of mid-latitude sporadic-E observed during the SEEK-2 campaign [PDF]
In the mid-latitude ionospheric region, sporadic-E layers (Es layers) have often been observed, revealing multiple layers. The Es layers observed during the SEEK-2 rocket campaign showed double electron density peaks; namely, there are stable lower ...

Type-1 echoes from the mid-latitude E-Region ionosphere [PDF]
This paper presents more data on the properties of type-1 irregularities in the nighttime mid-latitude E-region ionosphere. The measurements were made with a 50-MHz Doppler radar system operating in Crete, Greece.

Non-trough foF2 enhancements at near-equatorial dip latitudes [PDF]
Fine resolution series from three equatorial ionosondes of the IEEY network in West Africa have revealed small-scale daytime peak F2 structures, superposed on the slowly varying minimum or "trough" distribution in the ±5° magnetic latitude zone.

Seasonal and magnetic activity variations of ionospheric electric fields above the southern mid-latitude station, Bundoora, Australia [PDF]
We investigate the seasonal, local solar time, and geomagnetic activity variations of the average Doppler velocity measured by an HF digital ionosonde deployed at Bundoora, Australia (145.1° E, 37.7° S, geographic; 49° S magnetic).

A model of mid-latitude E-region plasma convergence inside a planetary wave cyclonic vortex [PDF]
Recently, Shalimov et al. (1999) proposed a new mechanism for large-scale accumulation of long-lived metallic ions in the mid-latitude ionosphere driven by planetary waves in the lower thermosphere.
