Drivers of F‐Region Ionosphere Tidal Variability Caused by the Madden Julian Oscillation: Separating E‐Region Dynamo and Field‐Aligned Wind Effects

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO), a recurring intraseasonal (30–96 days) disturbance in the troposphere, strongly influences the E‐region and F‐region ionosphere through its modulation of atmospheric tides. Among these, the diurnal eastward wave number 3 (DE3) tide, driven by MJO‐modulated latent heating, carries MJO signals upward into the

Ionospheric Vertical Plasma Drifts Over South America: Long‐Term Multi‐Instrument Observations and TIEGCM and WACCM‐X Evaluations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present the first comprehensive multi‐instrument climatological study of quiet‐time equatorial F‐region vertical plasma drifts across South America, a region where the magnetic declination angle varies significantly. Our analysis of well‐established long‐term ground‐based data sets from the Jicamarca incoherent scatter radar spanning 1968 ...

Where is the solar dynamo? [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2013
In this paper I review results from recent global magnetohydrodynamical numerical simulations of solar convection, as a springboard to address the question "Where is the solar dynamo". I first describe and contrast similarities and differences in the large-scale flows and magnetic fields such simulations can produce, with emphasis on polarity reversals

HIWIND Observation of Daytime Thermospheric Winds Over New Zealand and Comparison With Model Simulation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract A balloon borne Fabry Perot interferometer called High altitude Interferometer WIND observation (HIWIND) flew from Wanaka, New Zealand (44.69S, 169.14E) in April 2025 to observe mid‐latitude thermospheric winds in the southern hemisphere for the first time.

First Detection of the Two‐Dimensional Vertical Propagation of Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances Associated With Atmospheric Gravity Waves in the Martian Ionosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract We report the detection of a traveling ionospheric disturbance (TID) captured by the Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) Active Ionospheric Sounding (AIS) instrument aboard the Mars Express spacecraft at 150–250 km altitude.

Predicting cycle 24 using various dynamo-based tools [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
Various dynamo-based techniques have been used to predict the mean solar cycle features, namely the amplitude and the timings of onset and peak. All methods use information from previous cycles, including particularly polar fields, drift-speed of the

The Role of Planetary Rotation in Polar Cusp Localization

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Juno observations have revealed that Jupiter's polar cusps are displaced toward dusk and even the nightside, contradicting the Earth‐derived paradigm that is confined to narrower ranges near noon. These findings underscore the overlooked influence of planetary rotation on magnetospheric dynamics, exposing a critical gap in current theoretical ...

Some Recent Developments in Solar Dynamo Theory

, 2006
We discuss the current status of solar dynamo theory and describe the dynamo model developed by our group. The toroidal magnetic field is generated in the tachocline by the strong differential rotation and rises to the solar surface due to magnetic ...

Connecting mean-field theory with dynamo simulations

Living Reviews in Solar Physics
Mean-field dynamo theory, describing the evolution of large-scale magnetic fields, has been the mainstay of theoretical interpretation of magnetism in astrophysical objects such as the Sun for several decades.
