Disturbance in the Daytime Midlatitude Upper F Region Associated with a Medium Scale Electrodynamic Vortex Motion of Plasma [PDF]
Under the assumption of the presence of a medium-scale E × B drift vortex of plasma in the daytime midlatitude F region, and using a simplified ionospheric model, we demonstrate that the E × B drift produces noticeable perturbations in the horizontal ...

The dayside high-latitude trough under quiet geomagnetic conditions: Radio tomography and the CTIP model [PDF]
International audienceThe dayside high-latitude trough is a persistent feature of the post-noon wintertime auroral ionosphere. Radio tomography observations have been used to map its location and latitudinal structure under quiet geomagnetic conditions ...

Statistical Study of the Ionospheric Slab Thickness at Beijing Midlatitude Station
The ratio of the total electron content (TEC) to the F2-layer peak electron density (NmF2) is known as the ionospheric equivalent slab thickness (EST, also known as τ), and it is a crucial indicator of the ionosphere. Using TEC and NmF2 data from the years 2010 to 2017, this work conducts a comprehensive statistical analysis of the ionospheric slab ...

Nighttime Enhancements in the Midlatitude Ionosphere and Their Relation to the Plasmasphere [PDF]
AbstractIn situ electron density measurements by the CHAllenging Minisatellite Payload and the Defense Meteorological Satellites Program F17 satellites show that the midlatitude ionization at altitudes of ∼350 and 850 km is enhanced in the late evening.

Midlatitude ionospheric disturbances during magnetic storms and substorms [PDF]
We present periodic (∼2 hour) magnetospheric and ionospheric oscillations observed with multiple space‐based and ground‐based instruments during the severe magnetic storm of 25 September 1998. Periodic particle injections were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

Space weather impacts on the ionosphere over the southern African mid-latitude region
The ionosphere suffers major perturbations during severe space weather events such as Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), solar flares, high-speed streams, and Corotating Interaction Regions (CIRs).
