A coordinated ground-based and IMAGE satellite study of quiet-time plasmaspheric density profiles [PDF]
, 2003 Cold plasma mass density profiles in the plasmasphere have been determined for the geomagnetically quiet day of 19th August 2000 using the cross-phase technique applied to ground-based magnetometer data from the SAMNET, IMAGE and BGS magnetometer arrays.

Electron loss rates from the outer radiation belt caused by the filling of the outer plasmasphere: The calm before the storm [PDF]
, 2009 Measurements from seven spacecraft in geosynchronous orbit are analyzed to determine the decay rate of the number density of the outer electron radiation belt prior to the onset of high-speed-stream-driven geomagnetic storms.

The interactions between ULF waves and cold charged particles in the Earth's magnetosphere
地球与行星物理论评, 2022 In the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling processes, many kinds of plasma waves can be excited in the Earth's magnetosphere including ULF waves, hiss waves, chorus waves, etc. Among these waves, ULF waves are featured by the lowest wave frequency (1 mHz～1

The Potential for a Networked Ionospheric Sounding Constellation
Space Weather, 2022 A novel networked sounding constellation mission concept is proposed. Radio sounding is the original sensing method that proved the existence of the ionosphere. Satellite‐borne sounders provided the first global observations of the terrestrial ionosphere

Prediction of plasmaspheric hiss spectral classes
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 We present a random forests machine learning model for prediction of plasmaspheric hiss spectral classes from the Van Allen Probes dataset. The random forests model provides accurate prediction of plasmaspheric hiss spectral classes obtained by the self ...
