Journal ArticleDOI

Global distribution of ionospheric and field‐aligned currents during substorms as determined from six IMS meridian chains of magnetometers: Initial results

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used magnetic records from 70 stations to deduce patterns of electric fields and currents in high latitudes on March 17, 18, and 19, 1978.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavior of the F2 peak ionosphere over the South Pacific at dusk during quiet summer conditions from COSMIC data

TL;DR: The Weddell Sea anomaly was first identified in this article, where the six-satellite Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate (COSMIC) mission makes routine ionospheric measurements over the entire globe using occultation techniques and develops global-scale climate maps of NmF2 and hmf2 during the southern (northern) summer (winter).
Journal ArticleDOI

Winds in the high‐latitude lower thermosphere: Dependence on the interplanetary magnetic field

TL;DR: In this paper, wind observations in the summertime lower thermosphere at high southern latitudes, measured by the Wind Imaging Interferometer (WINDII) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, are statistically analyzed in magnetic coordinates and correlated with the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) to determine influences of IMFdependent ionospheric convection on the winds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of the non-hydrostatic effect on the upper atmosphere using a general circulation model (GCM)

TL;DR: Deng et al. as mentioned in this paper used the non-hydrostatic Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model (GITM) to solve the complete vertical momentum equation, and showed that after a sudden intense enhancement of high-latitude Joule heating, the vertical pressure gradient force can locally be 25% larger than the gravity force, resulting in a significant disturbance away from hydrostatic equilibrium.
