Next, we compute the wavefields in the frequency-wavenumber domain using a global matrix method incorporating boundary conditions and the source contribution. Finally, we obtain the time-space responses through the wavenumber integration and fast Fourier transform. We use this method to investigate the characteristics of AGWs generated by an earthquake source. The results reveal two main types of AGWs: the epicenter AGW generated by seismic waves near the epicenter and the head AGWs generated by the seismic waves that travel along the free surface. The epicenter AGW shows lower frequency compared with the head waves. AGWs caused by earthquakes with different focal mechanisms exhibit different energy distributions. Particularly, both the epicenter and head AGWs caused by a vertical strike fault are weak along the strike direction. The epicenter AGW is very sensitive to the source depth comparing to the head AGW. We also find that the Earth structure has little effect on the epicenter AGW but a significant effect on the head AGWs.

This research investigates the impacts of the geomagnetic storm (GMS) of 23–24 March 2023, utilizing VLF measurements from a monitoring station in the Mediterranean region. A variety of analytical approaches, including the traditional wavelet analysis for detecting events such as traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) and or gravity waves (GWs), and the novel cross-wavelet coherence (WTC) correlation from cross wavelet transform methods, were employed to identify both apparent and subtle effects of the storm on the D-region ionosphere. Key findings include signal enhancement and attenuation of up to several tens of decibels during different phases of the storm's progression, observation of wave-like signatures (WLS) with time scales in the periods of GWs. The study also highlights significant delays in the D-region's response to magnetosphere-ionosphere energy exchanges driven by solar wind-magnetic reconnection during the storm. These delays, ranging from minutes to tens of minutes, were found to vary depending on the analytical technique used. The WTC analysis demonstrated maximum correlation values between amplitude deviations and the SYM-H geomagnetic index, ranging from ±0.9084 to ±0.9364 on the N/S signal channel and ±0.9188 to ±0.9363 on the E/W channel.

The basis is optimized for electrodynamics as the meridional and zonal vectors are vertical and horizontal at the magnetic equator. To counter assumptions from previous solutions, we demonstrate that multipole magnetic fields intrinsically support orthogonal basis vectors. The new basis also satisfies the conservation of magnetic flux and yields a magnetic field with zero divergence. Comparison of two different basis derivations demonstrates low basis uncertainty. The mapping functionality is validated through analytical example and comparison to a novel electrostatic field-line model. Using the orthogonal basis vectors a new orthogonal magnetic coordinate system is created. The equations for electrodynamics are expressed and simplified by the new coordinates, including a novel two-dimensional variant. Using the orthogonal basis we create an optimal meridional-zonal grid plane for numerically solving electrodynamics equations. To support geophysical interpretation, the meridional-zonal grid is tested by calculating a global electrostatic potential and electric field distribution.

Most coupling functions assume the interaction is one-directional, that the solar wind conditions determine the energy that is transferred into the magnetosphere. To test this one-directional hypothesis, we use the Space Weather Modeling Framework to simulate nine 48-hr periods of idealized steady solar wind driving. The IMF inputs were varied every 2 hr, while the plasma conditions were held fixed for each of the nine intervals lasting 48 hr each. We calculate the energy flux through the magnetopause surface, including magnetopause motion effects. The energy transport through the open magnetopause is compared with two empirical coupling functions across all 2-hr intervals of steady solar wind driving. We find the energy input to the magnetosphere does not remain steady, as quantified by total variation, which has a median value of 1.36 TW. The variability results were binned according to a substorm indicator that combines signatures of dipolarization, plasmoid release, and substorm current wedge. Binning into substorm and non-substorm categories yielded different median variability values, but the substorm indicator failed to explain conditions of high variability in energy transport. Evaluation of energy injection results across all conditions suggests there may be a minimum energy state for a given solar wind condition. If such a minimum exists and can be reproduced, it may provide a basis for a new two-way solar wind–magnetosphere coupling function, including the effect of the state of the magnetosphere.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2025JA033771","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144514617","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}

Nudging the full fields of basic state variables minimizes contamination from spectral aliasing and mode coupling, ensuring the most accurate reproduction of each tidal component. In contrast, nudging solely diurnal tides has substantial spectral leakage into semidiurnal tides, leading to underestimations of their own amplitudes and day-to-day variabilities (DTDVs). Nudging both diurnal and semidiurnal tides mitigates such underestimations, establishing a minimal requirement for reproducing tidal dynamics and ionospheric DTDVs. Lower boundary forcing (LBF) causes significant deviations of tidal amplitudes and DTDVs near the boundary, but only a ∼10% underestimation above it. The DTDV of vertical ion drift gradually increases with more wave components incorporated and shows a ∼10% underestimation with LBF. Constraining geopotential height (<i>Z</i>*) is critical in TIEGCM to properly add GWs at lower levels. Model runs with <i>Z</i>* constrained exhibit reduced sensitivity to nudging levels: one-level nudging and LBF runs show 20%–30% underestimations of TID magnitudes compared to a four-scale-height nudging run. Conversely, when <i>Z</i>* is unavailable and only <i>U</i>, <i>V</i>, <i>T</i> are constrained, one-level nudging and LBF lead to 80%–90% underestimations of TIDs, with LBF entirely missing wave features. Therefore, multi-level nudging, especially with <i>Z</i>* unconstrained, is recommended to incorporate GWs. Overall, nudging provides a powerful tool to realistically incorporate observed or simulated waves across medium to global scales into ionosphere-thermosphere models, offering a data-driven perspective of variability for lower boundary conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":15894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics","volume":"130 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JA033517","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144514639","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}
