Features of annual and semiannual variations derived from the global ionospheric maps of total electron content
In the present work we use the NASA-JPL global ionospheric maps of total electron content (TEC), firstly to construct TEC maps (TEC vs. magnetic local time MLT, and magnetic latitude MLAT) in the interval from 1999 to 2005. These TEC maps were, in turn, used to estimate the annualto-mean amplitude ratio, A1, and the semiannual-to-mean amplitude ratio, A2, as well as the latitudinal symmetrical ...
متن کاملSolar flare signatures of the ionospheric GPS total electron content
6 [1] In this study, ionospheric solar flare effects on the total electron content (TEC) and 7 associated time rate of change (rTEC) derived from ground-based global positioning 8 system (GPS) receivers in the midday region are examined. The occurrence times and 9 locations of 11 solar flares are isolated from the 1–8 Å X-ray radiations of the 10 geosynchronous operational environmental satelli...
متن کاملTotal Ionospheric Electron Content Calibration Using SERIES GPS Satellite Data
This article describes the current status of the Deep Space Network advanced systems research into ionospheric calibration techniques, based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data. A GPS-based calibration system is planned to replace the currently used Faraday rotation method by 1989. The SERIES receiver system used in this research determines the differential group delay of signals transmitte...
متن کاملAnalysis of equatorial plasma bubble zonal drift velocities in the Pacific sector by imaging techniques
Using 1024 nights of data from 2002–2005 taken by the Cornell Narrow Field Imager (CNFI), we examine equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) zonal drift velocity characteristics. CNFI is located at the Maui Space Surveillance Site on the Haleakala Volcano (geographic: 20.71 N, 203.83 E; geomagnetic: 21.03 N, 271.84 E) on the island of Maui, Hawaii. The imager is set up to view in a magnetic fieldaligned...
متن کاملRelative drift between black aurora and the ionospheric plasma
Black auroras are recognized as spatially welldefined regions within uniform diffuse aurora where the optical emission is significantly reduced. Although a well studied phenomenon, there is no generally accepted theory for black auroras. One theory suggests that black regions are formed when energetic magnetospheric electrons no longer have access to the loss cone. If this blocking mechanism dr...
