ULF wave activity during the 2003 Halloween superstorm: multipoint observations from CHAMP, Cluster and Geotail missions [PDF]
We examine data from a topside ionosphere and two magnetospheric missions (CHAMP, Cluster and Geotail) for signatures of ultra low frequency (ULF) waves during the exceptional 2003 Halloween geospace magnetic storm, when Dst reached ~−380 nT. We

Advancing Heliophysics and Space Weather Modeling Through Open Science
Abstract We present a community‐wide effort to develop a strategy and action plan to advance heliophysics and space weather modeling through open science. While open science has the potential to enhance the quality and pace of scientific discovery, its application to scientific modeling requires more careful consideration regarding open data and open ...

Radio-induced incoherent scatter ion line enhancements with wide altitude extents in the high-latitude ionosphere [PDF]
[1] Apparent large electron density enhancements deduced from incoherent scatter radar observations during recent high power radio wave injection experiments at the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association (EISCAT) facility near Tromsø, Norway ...

A Neural network model of Electron density in Earth’s Topside ionosphere (NET)
The ionosphere is an ionized part of the upper atmosphere, where the number of free electrons is large enough to affect the propagation of radio signals, including those of the GNSS systems.

Abstract The vertical shear of horizontal neutral winds plays an important role in forming dense metallic layers in the E region. Previous studies suggest that metal ion layers may inhibit equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) development by enhancing E‐region Pedersen conductivity.

Specification of the Thickness of the Topside of the Ionosphere
Abstract : A model is presented for the thickness of the electron density profile in the region above the F layer maximum. The model varies with time and solar conditions; it is specified by observations or predictions of the height of the F layer maximum; and it is independent of latitude.

On the Formation of the E Region Layers at Low Altitudes—Theory
Abstract An analysis of E region ion layer formation is presented, including the effects of a non‐dipole geomagnetic field and gravity on vertical ion drifts, with a particular focus on E region layers at lower altitudes (ELLAs). For nonzero magnetic declination, meridional winds can have an effect similar to those of zonal winds.

An interferometer experiment to explore the aspect angle dependence of stimulated electromagnetic emission spectra [PDF]
International audienceWhen the Earth's ionosphere is irradiated by a radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic wave of sufficiently high power density and tuned to match a natural E- or F-region plasma frequency, ionospheric magnetoionic wave modes may be ...

The applicability of existing topside ionospheric models to the South African region
The modelling of the electron density profile (Ne) for the topside ionosphere is challenging due to the limited availability of measured data. Over the past few years, a range of approaches to topside ionospheric modelling and representation of the Ne ...

Abstract The ionosphere imposes coupled amplitude, phase, and polarization distortions on trans‐ionospheric Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals, reflecting the structure and dynamics of electron‐density irregularities. Classical weak‐scatter theory provides a mature framework for interpreting amplitude and phase scintillation, but these ...
