Journal ArticleDOI

Sources of low-latitude ionospheric E × B drifts and their variability

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the contribution of gravity and plasma pressure gradient driven current, the geomagnetic main field, and longitudinal variation in the conductivities to the vertical drift.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 30‐MHz radar interferometer studies of midlatitude E region irregularities

TL;DR: In this paper, the 30-MHz radar observations of coherent scatter from midlatitude E region plasma irregularities are presented and interpreted, and the analysis indicates that quasiperiodic (QP) echoes can be interpreted as quasi-point target scatterers drifting through the radar beam at approximately constant altitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical investigation of the saturation effect in the ionospheric foF2 versus sunspot, solar radio noise, and solar EUV radiation

TL;DR: In this article, a two-segmented regression model is built based on the data of the strictly rise period of the 21st solar cycle recorded by eight ionosonde stations scattering roughly between 40°N and 40°S geomagnetic latitude.

Geomagnetic storm simulation with a Coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the first global, self-consistent, fully electrically coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere model, based on the UCLA magnetosphere ionosphere model and the NOAA Coupled Thermosphere Ionosphere Model (CTIM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase reversal of the diurnal cycle in the midlatitude ionosphere

TL;DR: In this article, a phase reversal of the typical diurnal cycle of the midlatitude F region electron density consists of a midday maximum and a midnight minimum, and the phase reversal is more pronounced at solar minimum than at solar maximum, and more pronounced in SP region than in NA and EA regions, in terms of larger diurnal magnitude and more months it lasts in a year.
