Spatio-temporal structure of a poloidal Alfvén wave detected by Cluster adjacent to the dayside plasmapause [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
A case study of a poloidal ULF pulsation near the dayside plasmapause is presented based on Cluster observations of magnetic and electric fields. The pulsation is detected close to the magnetic equatorial plane at L shells L=[4.4, 4.6] and oscillates

ML‐EPM: A Machine Learning Model of Auroral Electron Precipitation Spectra Using Long‐Term DMSP Observations

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Auroral precipitation plays a key role in coupling the Magnetosphere–Ionosphere–Thermosphere system by modifying ionospheric conductance, currents, atmospheric heating, and upper‐atmospheric dynamics. Leveraging 17 years of electron spectrum data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), we developed a Machine Learning‐based ...

Wave and plasma measurements and GPS diagnostics of the main ionospheric trough as a hybrid method used for Space Weather purposes [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
The region of the main ionospheric trough is a unique region of the ionosphere, where different types of waves and instabilities can be generated. This region of the ionosphere acts like a lens, focusing a variety of indicators from the equator of ...

Dynamical Simulations of Plasmapause Deformations [PDF]

Space Science Reviews, 2006
Dynamical simulations have been developed at IASB-BIRA to model the deformations of the plasmasphere during geomagnetic substorms and other variations in the level of geomagnetic activity. The simulations are based on the mechanism of plasma instability and use the empirical Kp-dependent electric field E5D.

Assessment of Spacecraft Internal Charging in the Earth's Outer Radiation Belt

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The internal charging effects triggered by energetic (>100 keV) electrons in the Earth's radiation belts can cause anomalies and failures of electronic components aboard spacecraft. Given the critical importance of safeguarding space assets, it is essential to estimate internal charging risks, which depend highly on the distribution of ...

Global estimates of plasmaspheric losses during moderate disturbance intervals [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2010
For a set of five moderate disturbance events, we calculate the total number of He+ ions removed the plasmasphere using calibrated global EUV images.

Longitudinal Variation of Ionospheric Irregularities and Response of the Ionosphere During 10–13 May and 10–13 October 2024 Geomagnetic Storms

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We examine the response of the ionosphere to the 10–13 May 2024 and 10–13 October 2024 geomagnetic storms, the two recent great geomagnetic storms of solar cycle 25. We identified the occurrence of ionospheric irregularities during the two geomagnetic storms.

Statistical Survey of Cosmic Noise Absorption in Conjunction With Plasma Wave Measurements

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Using a decade of observations from the Canadian Geospace Observatory Riometer Network (GO‐RIO), we selected an east‐west subset of stations near L∼7 $L\sim 7$ to classify cosmic noise absorption (CNA) (a proxy for enhanced D‐region ionization) into two morphologies, simultaneous and drifting, based on the relative timing of signals across the

A Predictive Model of the Position of Plasmapause Based on Lunar Phase and Deep Learning Framework

Geophysical Research Letters
The plasmapause position is crucial for understanding magnetospheric dynamics and space weather forecasting. This study pioneers the integration of lunar phase (LP) into plasmapause modeling using two neural network architectures (BP and fully connected ...

Sensitivity of Bounce‐Averaged Diffusion Coefficients to the Latitudinal Variability of Lightning Generated Whistlers

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The development of statistical wave models that include the underlying variability of the wave distributions is an important next step toward more accurate radiation belt models. Lightning‐generated whistlers (LGW) are an important wave mode in the plasmasphere; previous time‐averaged diffusion coefficients have used assumptions about the wave
