There are several external sources of ionospheric forcing, including these are solar wind-
magnetospheric processes and lower atmospheric winds and waves. In this work we review …

Over the last few years, experimental and numerical modeling studies have provided
extensive new information on the electrodynamics of the low-latitude ionosphere. Ground …

We have used plasma drift and magnetic field measurements during the 2001–2009
December solstices to study, for the first time, the longitudinal dependence of equatorial …

The daytime equatorial electrojet is a narrow band of enhanced eastward current flowing in
the 100–120 km altitude region within±2° latitude of the dip equator. A unique way of …

We use radar measurements from the Jicamarca Radio Observatory, magnetometer
observations from the Pacific sector and ionosonde data from Brazil to study equatorial …

Abstract The Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) on NASA's Ionospheric Connection Explorer (ICON)
reports the in-situ ion density, ion temperature and 3-component ion drift velocity, retrieved …

This paper presents coherent scatter radar observations of plasma irregularities in the
equatorial F region ionosphere made with the JULIA (Jicamarca unattended long‐term …

The Equatorial Ionization Anomaly (EIA) is a significant feature of the low‐latitude
ionosphere. During daytime, the eastward electric field drives a vertical plasma fountain at …

Since 1996 incoherent scatter F region plasma drift measurements at Jicamarca have been
implemented using a new signal processing approach replacing the traditional pulse‐to …

As it was suggested by Kudeki and Fawcett [1993], and later shown by Woodman and
Villanueva [1995], vertical Doppler velocities of daytime 150‐km echoes represent the …
