Numerical Simulations of Metallic Ion Density Perturbations in Sporadic E Layers Caused by Gravity Waves

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Tidal signatures in sporadic E (Es) layer have been confirmed by observations and simulations. However, the effect of gravity waves (GWs) on the Es layer formation process has not yet been fully understood.

Unusual Enhancement of Midlatitude Sporadic-E Layers in Response to a Minor Geomagnetic Storm

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
This study investigates the variations of middle and low latitude sporadic-E (Es) layers in response to a geomagnetic storm. Es layers are observed by five ionosondes located in the Eastern Asian sector.

Sounding of sporadic E layers from China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES) radio occultation and comparing with ionosonde measurements [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2022
GNSS radio occultation (RO) plays an important role in ionospheric electron density inversion and sounding of sporadic E layers. As China's first electromagnetic satellite, China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES) has collected the RO data from both

Numerical prediction of sporadic E layer occurrence using GAIA [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2021
A sporadic E layer has significant influence on radio communications and broadcasting, and predicting the occurrence of sporadic E layers is one of the most important issues in space weather forecast.

Morphology of sporadic E layers derived from Fengyun-3C GPS radio occultation measurements

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
The Global Positioning System (GPS) radio occultation (RO) data provided by the Fengyun-3C (FY-3C) mission during January 2015 to December 2019 are used to detect the existence of sporadic E (Es) layers over the globe, based on which the spatial and ...

Consolidated Amateur Radio Signal Reports as Indicators of Intense Sporadic E Layers

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
A case study is presented which demonstrates the value and validity of a novel approach to the use of consolidated amateur (‘ham’) radio reception reports as indicators of the presence of intense ionospheric sporadic E (Es).

Modulation of sporadic E layers by small-scale atmospheric waves in Earth’s high-latitude ionosphere

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2019
We have used radio occultation measurements of the satellite CHAMP (Challenging Minisatellite Payload) to examine sporadic E layers (altitudes 90–130 km) in Earth’s high-latitude ionosphere.

Terdiurnal signatures in sporadic E layers at midlatitudes [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Radio Science, 2013
Global Positioning System radio occultation measurements by the FORMOsa SATellite mission-3/Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate satellites were used to analyse the behaviour of the signature of the terdiurnal tide in ...

Sporadic potassium layers and their connection to sporadic E layers in the mesopause region at Beijing, China

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2017
A double-laser beam lidar to measure potassium (K) layer at Beijing (40.5° N, 116.2° E) was successfully developed in 2010. The parameters of sporadic Ks layers and their distributions were given.

Seasonal variability and descent of mid-latitude sporadic E layers at Arecibo [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2009
Sporadic E layers (Es) follow regular daily patterns in variability and altitude descent, which are determined primarily by the vertical tidal wind shears in the lower thermosphere.
