The CHAOS-7 geomagnetic field model and observed changes in the South Atlantic Anomaly [PDF]
We present the CHAOS-7 model of the time-dependent near-Earth geomagnetic field between 1999 and 2020 based on magnetic field observations collected by the low-Earth orbit satellites Swarm, CryoSat-2, CHAMP, SAC-C and Ørsted, and on annual differences of

Drift rate of the South Atlantic Anomaly [PDF]
A portion of the secular change of the geomagnetic field leads to a drift of the trapped belt South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). If this drift is not taken into account, models of the trapped particle population give erroneous predictions of particle fluxes.

Impact of the South Atlantic Anomaly on radiation exposure at flight altitudes during solar minimum [PDF]
The South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) is a geographical region over the South Atlantic Ocean where the inner Van Allen radiation belt extends down particularly close to Earth.

Speleothem record of geomagnetic South Atlantic Anomaly recurrence. [PDF]
The diminishing strength of the Earth’s magnetic dipole over recent millennia is accompanied by the increasing prominence of the geomagnetic South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), which spreads over the South Atlantic Ocean and South America. The longevity of this feature at millennial timescales is elusive because of the scarcity of continuous geomagnetic data

Characterization of the South Atlantic Anomaly [PDF]
Abstract. This research intends to characterize the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) by applying power spectrum analysis approach. From the approach, the Hurst exponent can be determined. The motivation to study the SAA region is due to its nature.

Sensitivity of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation to South Atlantic freshwater anomalies [PDF]
The sensitivity of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) to changes in basin integrated net evaporation is highly dependent on the zonal salinity contrast at the southern border of the Atlantic.

Theoretical study of the ionospheric dynamo region inside the South Atlantic Anomaly
The South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) is a region where the geomagnetic field is significantly lower than that of the surrounding area. On the basis of the models of CHAOS-7.8, Mass Spectrometer Incoherent Scatter Model (NRLMSISE-00), and International ...

Time evolution of the South Atlantic Magnetic Anomaly [PDF]
The South Atlantic Magnetic Anomaly (SAMA) is one of the most outstanding anomalies of the geomagnetic field. The SAMA secular variation was obtained and compared to the evolution of other anomalies using spherical harmonic field models for the 1590-2005

South Atlantic anomaly and CubeSat design considerations
Effects of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) on spacecraft in low Earth orbit (LEO) are well known and documented. The SAA exposes spacecraft in LEO to high dose of ionizing radiation as well as higher than normal rates of Single Event Upsets (SEU) and Single Event Latch-ups (SEL).

Non-monotonic growth and motion of the South Atlantic Anomaly [PDF]
The South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) is a region at Earth’s surface where the intensity of the magnetic field is particularly low. Accurate characterization of the SAA is important for both fundamental understanding of core dynamics and the geodynamo as well
