Atmospheric Tides Imprint a Wavenumber‐4 Structure in Topside Ionospheric ELF Wave Intensity

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric tides produce a well known pronounced longitudinal wavenumber‐4 (WN‐4) structure in the ionosphere, but their influence on electromagnetic‐wave propagation through the ionosphere remains poorly constrained. Here we use DEMETER satellite measurements to show that the extremely low frequency (ELF) electric field in the low‐latitude ...

On Turbulent Features of E × B Plasma Motion in the Auroral Topside Ionosphere: Some Results from CSES-01 Satellite

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The recent Chinese Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES-01) provides a good opportunity to investigate some features of plasma properties and its motion in the topside ionosphere. Using simultaneous measurements from the electric field detector and the

The Drag of Ionosphere Plasma Drifts on Thermospheric Zonal Winds During the 10–12 May 2024 Superstorm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The observations from GRACE‐FO and DMSP satellites are utilized to analyze the ion‐neutral interaction near dusk during the 10–12 May 2024 super‐storm. The horizontal plasma convection dragged the anti‐sunward wind in the polar cap and sunward winds around the auroral and subauroral regions during whole storm times.

Localized structure in the cusp and high-latitude ionosphere: a modelling study [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1999
The ionospheric signature of a flux transfer event (FTE) seen in EISCAT radar data has been used as the basis for a modelling study using a new numerical model of the high-latitude ionosphere developed at the University of Sheffield, UK. The evolution

Evolution of NWC Transmitter Wave Power Distribution From the Topside Ionosphere Into the Inner Magnetosphere

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Ground‐based very low frequency transmitters emit signals that primarily propagate within the Earth–ionosphere waveguide, and some of their energy can propagate into the magnetosphere. Ionospheric observations from the DEMETER satellite reveal a distinct concentric rings pattern of the wave power distribution of the North West Cape transmitter

Modeling the topside ionosphere by means of electron density values as recorded by the Swarm constellation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The topside part of the ionosphere lies above the ionospheric F2 layer peak and extends up to the plasmasphere. Since it contains a considerable part of the ionospheric plasma, its modeling is important for telecommunication’s purposes.

Ionospheric topside models compared with experimental electron density profiles

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2005
Recently an increasing number of topside electron density profiles has been made available to the scientific community on the Internet. These data are important for ionospheric modeling purposes, since the experimental information on the ...

Improving Electron Density Predictions in the Topside of the Ionosphere Using Machine Learning on In Situ Satellite Data

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2022
Modeling the Earth's ionosphere is a critical component of forecasting space weather, which in turn impacts radio wave propagation, navigation and communication.

Nitric Oxide Intensification Associated With STEVE: TIMED/SABER‐REGO Observations and Comparison With GITM Simulation

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement (STEVE) is a nightsky optical phenomenon of great research interest in recent years. STEVE is recognized to be co‐located with a latitudinally narrow channel of fast westward ion drifts, also known as “subauroral ion drifts” (SAID).

Topside Electron Density Modeling Using Neural Network and Empirical Model Predictions

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2023
We model the electron density in the topside of the ionosphere with an improved machine learning (ML) model and compare it to existing empirical models, specifically the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) and the Empirical‐Canadian High Arctic ...
