This study aims to evaluate the generation of additional ionospheric perturbations through case studies of total solar eclipses observed across the United States on 21 August 2017 and 8 May 2024. Total electron content (TEC) values are used to track ionospheric perturbations along the eclipse paths. When a smoothing filter (Savitzky–Golay filter) is applied to detect ionospheric perturbations, negative TEC perturbations are observed during totality, while positive TEC perturbations are detected around the beginning and end of the eclipses. These perturbations, caused by rapid TEC variations during these periods, are interpreted as filtering artifacts. Quasi-periodic multiple TEC perturbation layers are detected along the eclipse paths when an oscillatory filter (polynomial detrending) is applied. However, as this filter introduces wave-like artifacts during detrending, the resulting patterns do not represent actual TEC perturbations. Based on our observational and test results, we conclude that eclipse-induced ionospheric perturbations beyond the well-documented plasma depletion are not evident because actual eclipse-induced perturbations are not distinguishable from filtering artifacts.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2025JA033746","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144206935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An increase from ∼17 to ∼31 kV in the modeled reconnection voltages is observed when the strength of the interplanetary magnetic field is increased corresponding to expected conditions during solar maximum.

These events are typically triggered by enhanced magnetic reconnection between the Earth's magnetic field and the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). While substorms are often associated with southward IMF orientations, studies have also shown that they can occur even during northward IMF conditions, particularly when solar wind pressure pulses or strong IMF By components are present. This paper examines two unique substorm events, occurring on 06 September 2017 and 19 December 2015, where both events involved minimal IMF Bz and prolonged negative By, alongside coincident pressure pulses. Despite these similar interplanetary conditions, the ground-based magnetic field observations revealed distinct differences in the location and intensity of the auroral electrojet. On 06 September, the electrojet was strongest in the post-midnight sector, whereas on 19 December, the maximum intensity occurred in the dawn sector. Simulations using the OpenGGCM magnetohydrodynamic model reveal that the substorm onset mechanisms differed between the two events. The 06 September event followed a typical IMF By-induced pattern with a shift in onset location to post-midnight, while the 19 December event exhibited an unusual onset, with plasma splitting and propagating sunward in both pre- and post-midnight sectors. These findings suggest that pressure pulses, rather than IMF By, are responsible for large shifts in substorm onset location. The study highlights the need for further investigation into multiple reconnection sites and the role of solar wind pressure in shaping substorm evolution.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2025JA033758","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144206494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The vertical component plays a key role in enhancing model accuracy by capturing altitude-dependent spatial correlations, directly influencing electron density profile reconstruction. In this study, we used Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate-2 Global Ionospheric Specification data to analyze vertical correlation distances in the ionosphere, identifying the altitude range where the correlation coefficient exceeds 0.75 in both upward and downward directions. The results revealed a clear pattern: vertical correlation distances initially increased with altitude, then the rate of increase slowed or decreased before rising again. Significant variations were observed with local time (LT), geomagnetic latitude, and seasonal effects. Winter anomalies, possibly due to changes in the O/N<sub>2</sub> ratio, amplified vertical correlations, particularly between LT 12:00 and 18:00. A layered Gaussian model was developed to parameterize the vertical correlation coefficients, and its accuracy and adaptability were validated across different seasonal conditions. The model's correlation with observational data was greater than 0.75 across all seasons, with relatively small errors at lower altitudes, typically within 50 km. At reference heights exceeding 500 km, the error range remained within approximately 100 km for most points.

Since the magnetic pile-up in the magnetosheath has to be maintained, the BSC cannot close locally, but must instead connect to magnetospheric current systems. However, the details of this closure remain poorly understood. For east–west interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) it has been hypothesized that the BSC partly closes to the high-latitude ionosphere, as field-aligned currents (FACs) on open field lines, but there is still no statistical evidence of this.

With the increase of hot electron proportion (&lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;sub&gt;e&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/i&gt;), waves are found to grow successively at &lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;math&gt;\u0000 &lt;semantics&gt;\u0000 &lt;mrow&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;ω&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;mo&gt;&gt;&lt;/mo&gt;\u0000 &lt;mn&gt;0.5&lt;/mn&gt;\u0000 &lt;msub&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;Ω&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;H&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;/msub&gt;\u0000 &lt;/mrow&gt;\u0000 &lt;annotation&gt; $omega &gt; 0.5{{Omega }}_{H}$&lt;/annotation&gt;\u0000 &lt;/semantics&gt;&lt;/math&gt; and &lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;math&gt;\u0000 &lt;semantics&gt;\u0000 &lt;mrow&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;ω&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;mo&gt;&gt;&lt;/mo&gt;\u0000 &lt;msub&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;Ω&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;mi&gt;H&lt;/mi&gt;\u0000 &lt;/msub&gt;\u0000 &lt;/mrow&gt;\u0000 &lt;annotation&gt; $omega &gt; {{Omega }}_{H}$&lt;/annotation&gt;\u0000 &lt;/semantics&gt;&lt;/math&gt;.

The electron firehose (EFH) modes are excited by the parallel anisotropic electrons. Due to the wave couplings between EMIC and EFH modes, the dispersion relations of EMIC waves are changed significantly, and the frequencies at peak growth rates of EMIC waves are moved regularly with the increase of &lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;sub&gt;e&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.

However, a complete understanding of key plasma parameters responsible for whistler-mode generation remains elusive. In this study, we conduct a comprehensive statistical survey using 11 years of in-situ measurements from the ARTEMIS mission to reveal the global distribution of whistler-mode wave amplitude and occurrence rate as the Moon traverses through the solar wind, magnetosheath, and magnetotail during a typical lunar orbit. Our findings reveal that the highest whistler-mode wave amplitudes are observed when the Moon crosses Earth's magnetosheath. A parametric study is conducted to explore the correlation between whistler-mode wave occurrence rate and plasma parameters such as electron temperature anisotropy and heat flux. These parameters are analyzed separately for low-energy (&lt;100 eV) and high-energy (&gt;100 eV) electrons. The results indicate that whistler-mode wave occurrence rates exhibit a stronger positive correlation with the temperature anisotropy of high-energy electrons compared to low-energy electrons. Moreover, the parallel heat flux (normalized by the free streaming heat flux) of high-energy electrons shows a moderate positive correlation with whistler-mode wave amplitude (normalized to the background magnetic field) in both the solar wind and magnetosheath regions. We further investigate the influence of the background magnetic field line connection to the lunar surface on whistler-mode waves. Overall, our analysis demonstrates that the temperature anisotropy of high-energy electrons has a higher positive correlation with magnetic field connection than that of low-energy electrons.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144171920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, both phenomena are observed to commonly occur on the same night during summer, with longer durations of FSF corresponding to higher average MSTIDs activity values. MSTIDs activity tends to precede the FSF occurrence. The statistical peak distribution of MSTIDs activity is concentrated before midnight, whereas FSF peaks after midnight, with median occurrence time differing by approximately 1–2 hr. Additionally, FSF and MSTIDs exhibit similar spatial propagation characteristics, with occurrences in the northeastern region occurring earlier in universal time (UT). Building on these findings, the potential physical processes and mechanisms by which MSTIDs may excite FSF are further discussed, including the role of E-F coupling, as well as significant changes in critical frequency and virtual height at different MSTIDs activity conditions. Furthermore, the underlying reasons for the differences in the temporal distribution of FSF at different latitudes are also analyzed. The midnight type FSF may be related to the disturbed electric fields in MSTIDs and gradient drift instability, while presunrise type FSF mainly concentrates at higher latitudes, without obvious connections to MSTID activity, suggesting the existence of excitation mechanisms beyond MSTIDs.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144179066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
