Radio tomographic imaging of the northern high-latitude ionosphere on a wide geographic scale
[1] Several chains of receivers, measuring total electron content (TEC) during passes of satellites in the U.S. Navy Ionospheric Measuring System (NIMS), are operated at northern high latitudes by members of the International Ionospheric Tomography Community (IITC). Results are presented here of nearly simultaneous latitude-altitude images of the ionosphere over Scandinavia, Greenland, and Alas...
متن کاملA natural pixel decomposition for tomographic imaging of the ionosphere
We apply a natural pixel (NP) decomposition to the problem of computerized ionospheric tomography (CIT). For tomography from very few angles, the NP approach provides some distinct advantages over standard basis expansions. The NP solution requires no prior assumption and as such embeds into the solution the natural spatial resolution supported by the data. For the uniquely constrained CIT geom...
متن کاملThe response of the high-latitude ionosphere to IMF variations
The convection of plasma in the high-latitude ionosphere is strongly a2ected by the interplanetary magnetic 3eld (IMF) carried by the solar wind. From numerous statistical studies, it is known that the plasma circulation conforms to patterns that are characteristic of particular IMF states. Following a change in the IMF, the convection responds by recon3guring into a pattern that is more consis...
متن کاملStatistical characteristics of small-scale spatial and temporal electric field variability in the high-latitude ionosphere
[1] The statistical characteristics of small-scale spatial and temporal electric field variability in the high-latitude regions of Earth’s ionosphere are investigated using 48 months of data from the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) radars in both hemispheres. Electric field fluctuations on spatial scales between 45 km and 450 km and on temporal scales between 2 min and 20 min are c...
متن کاملStatistical maps of small-scale electric field variability in the high-latitude ionosphere
[1] Statistical maps of small-scale electric field variability in the high-latitude ionosphere are derived for the Northern and Southern Hemispheres using 48 months of data from the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN). Maps of variability magnitude (from scales of 45–450 km and 2–20 min) are derived for a range of interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientations and dipole tilt angles ...
