Periodicities observed in the solar and geomagnetic indexes and in SABER thermospheric infrared power measurements
We analyze periodic features in the F10.7 cm solar radio flux and the Ap geomagnetic index to examine solar-terrestrial coupling in Earth's atmosphere above 100 km. The coupling is indicated by the same periodic features observed in the global infrared power radiated by Nitric Oxide (NO) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). The infrared power data have been measured by the SABER instrument on the NASA TIMED satellite since January 2002. A strong dominant feature for the length of the solar cycle (≈11 years) can be observed in all the datasets. The length of this periodicity can vary from 9.95 years to 12.25 years for different solar cycles. Periodic features larger than the length of the solar cycle are also observed in the F10.7 and Ap index (≈22 years and ≈44 years). A strong 180-day periodic feature can be observed in the Ap index which corresponds to the well-known Russell-McPherron effect. Additionally, the NO power and the Ap index exhibit statistically significant periodic features for shorter periods (e.g., 27, 13.5 and 9 days). This similarity indicates a strong link between the thermosphere's infrared energy budget and the geomagnetic conditions of the upper atmosphere.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics (JASTP) is an international journal concerned with the inter-disciplinary science of the Earth''s atmospheric and space environment, especially the highly varied and highly variable physical phenomena that occur in this natural laboratory and the processes that couple them.
The journal covers the physical processes operating in the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, the Sun, interplanetary medium, and heliosphere. Phenomena occurring in other "spheres", solar influences on climate, and supporting laboratory measurements are also considered. The journal deals especially with the coupling between the different regions.
Solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and other energetic events on the Sun create interesting and important perturbations in the near-Earth space environment. The physics of such "space weather" is central to the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics and the journal welcomes papers that lead in the direction of a predictive understanding of the coupled system. Regarding the upper atmosphere, the subjects of aeronomy, geomagnetism and geoelectricity, auroral phenomena, radio wave propagation, and plasma instabilities, are examples within the broad field of solar-terrestrial physics which emphasise the energy exchange between the solar wind, the magnetospheric and ionospheric plasmas, and the neutral gas. In the lower atmosphere, topics covered range from mesoscale to global scale dynamics, to atmospheric electricity, lightning and its effects, and to anthropogenic changes.
