Hiss waves play an important role in removing energetic electrons from Earth’s radiation belts by precipitating them into the upper atmosphere. Compared to plasmaspheric hiss that has been studied extensively, the evolution and effects of plume hiss are ...

Internal source of plasmaspheric hiss on Earth
Plasmasphere is an upward extension of the ionosphere at low and middle latitudes along the closed magnetic field lines rooted in the Earth, where the trapped whistler-mode waves in the frequency range from tens to thousands of Hertz are named as ...

SAMI3 Simulations of a Persistent Plasmasphere Plume
The Naval Research Laboratory Sami3 is Also a Model of the Ionosphere (SAMI3) ionosphere/plasmasphere code is used to examine the physics of a long‐lived plasmasphere plume. The May 1994 storm is simulated.

A new climatological electron density model for supporting space weather services
The ionosphere is the ionized part of the Earth’s atmosphere, ranging from about 60 km up to several Earth radii, whereas the upper part above about 1000 km height up to the plasmapause is usually called the plasmasphere.

Proposal for an ionosphere/plasmasphere monitoring system
Abstract. A space-based satellite system suited for long-term monitoring of the Earth's ionosphere/plasmasphere systems is proposed. The monitoring system consists of a network of radio beacon satellites capable of measuring the ionospheric and plasmaspheric electron content on a continuous base with high time resolution.

Origins of plasmaspheric hiss [PDF]
Plasmaspheric hiss is an electromagnetic wave emission responsible for electron loss from the radiation belts, particularly in the slot region (2 < L < 3). There are two leading theories for the origin of plasmaspheric hiss: in situ amplification of wave turbulence in space and lightning‐generated whistlers.

Oxygen Ion Percentage Inferred From the Cutoff Frequencies of Ionospheric ELF Hiss Emissions
Abstract The lower cutoff frequency of hiss emissions observed in the ionosphere is controlled by local plasma composition and density. This study identifies 6,340 ionospheric hiss wave events based on observations from the China Seismo‐Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES‐01) from 1 August 2018 to 31 July 2020.

Generation of plasmaspheric undulations [PDF]
We have modeled the plasmaspheric plume region using the Comprehensive Ring Current model (CRCM) and the Dynamical Global Core Plasma model (DGCPM), for an event that exhibited substantial undulations or ripples as observed by the IMAGE EUV imager during 17 April 2002. We drove the simulated electric field using the Weimer cross polar cap potential. We

Abstract Global warming warms the lower atmosphere, but cools and contracts the upper atmosphere. These changes also affect the ionosphere, altering the vertical distribution of plasma through changes in the plasma scale height. Here, we use ionospheric equivalent slab thickness (τ) multidecadal time series, derived through observations from co‐located
