Probing the relationship between electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves and plasmaspheric plumes near geosynchronous orbit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Plasmaspheric plumes created during disturbed geomagnetic conditions have been suggested as a major cause of increased occurrences of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves at these times.

Wind Direction Inversion from Narrow-Beam HF Radar Backscatter Signals in Low and High Wind Conditions at Different Radar Frequencies

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Land-based, high-frequency (HF) surface wave radar has the unique capability of monitoring coastal surface parameters, such as current, waves, and wind, up to 200 km off the coast.

Long-period unstable gravity-waves and associated VHF radar echoes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1997
VHF atmospheric radar is used to measure the wind velocity and radar echo power related to long-period wind perturbations, including gravity waves, which are observed commonly in the lower stratosphere and tropopause region, and sometimes in the ...

SUPERLUMINAL WAVES IN PULSAR WINDS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
The energy lost by a rotation-powered pulsar is carried by a relativistic flow containing a mixture of electromagnetic fields and particles. In the inner regions, this is thought to be a magnetically dominated, cold, electron-positron wind that is well described by the MHD equations.

Large-eddy simulation of an atmospheric bore and associated gravity wave effects on wind farm performance in the southern Great Plains [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science
Gravity waves are a common occurrence in the atmosphere, with a variety of generation mechanisms. Their impact on wind farms has only recently gained attention, with most studies focused on wind farm-induced gravity waves.

Investigating Alfvénic wave propagation in coronal open-field regions

open access: yes, 2015
The physical mechanisms behind accelerating solar and stellar winds are a long-standing astrophysical mystery, although recent breakthroughs have come from models invoking the turbulent dissipation of Alfvén waves.

Modulation Instability of Hydro-Elastic Waves Blown by a Wind with a Uniform Vertical Profile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
An interesting physical phenomenon was recently observed when a fresh-water basin is covered by a thin ice film that has properties similar to the property of a rubber membrane.

On the Wind Generation of Water Waves [PDF]

open access: yesArchive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 2016
In this work, we consider the mathematical theory of wind generated water waves. This entails determining the stability properties of the family of laminar flow solutions to the two-phase interface Euler equation. We present a rigorous derivation of the linearized evolution equations about an arbitrary steady solution, and, using this, we give a ...

Solar cycle dependence of scaling in solar wind fluctuations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this review we collate recent results for the statistical scaling properties of fluctuations in the solar wind with a view to synthesizing two descriptions: that of evolving MHD turbulence and that of a scaling signature of coronal origin that ...

Alfvén waves in the near-PSBL lobe: Cluster observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Electromagnetic low-frequency waves in the magnetotail lobe close to the PSBL (Plasma Sheet Boundary Layer) are studied using the Cluster spacecraft.
