摘要

利用全球电离层-热层模型(GITM)和地球空间模型的高纬度驱动因子,研究了2023年4月23-24日地磁风暴期间风暴增强密度(SED)的形成和半球间不对称性。这场风暴由行星际日冕物质抛射(ICME)驱动,具有两个向南的国际货币基金组织间隔- ICME鞘紧随磁云(MC) -每个产生具有明显不对称性的SED。在鞘层阶段,两个半球都形成了SEDs,其中南部有一个更强的孤立峰。在MC阶段,一个较弱的SED只出现在北部,尽管IMF Bz较强。GITM结果表明,赤道中性风诱导的离子向上漂移是中纬度SED的主要驱动因素,而对流电场主导高纬度SED和羽流抬升。两个阶段的SED响应差异突出了热层成分及其时间历史在形成风暴时电离层密度中的作用,包括风暴前调制、风暴时增强以及具有世界时效应的磁极半球间不对称。鞘层期南方SED突出的主要原因是前期预处理和风暴时间强化导致了较高的O/N2比,而MC期的扩张对流降低了中纬度南部的O/N2,限制了SED的增长。大尺度旅行大气/电离层扰动(TADs/TIDs)对SED形成的影响最小。本研究量化了驱动SED形成的各种因素,并强调了双底风暴期间ICME鞘层对电离层-热层动力学的持续影响,以及热层成分在调节SED位置、特征和半球不对称性中的作用。

Formation Mechanism and Interhemispheric Asymmetry of Storm-Enhanced Density During April 2023 Storm Revealed by GITM

We investigate the formation and interhemispheric asymmetries of storm-enhanced density (SED) during the April 23–24, 2023 geomagnetic storm using the Global Ionosphere-Thermosphere Model (GITM) coupled with high-latitude drivers from the Geospace model. This storm, driven by an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME), featured two southward IMF intervals—the ICME sheath followed by a magnetic cloud (MC)—each producing SED with distinct asymmetries. During the sheath phase, SEDs formed in both hemispheres with a stronger isolated peak in the south. During the MC phase, a weaker SED appeared only in the north, despite a stronger IMF Bz. GITM results indicate that equatorward neutral wind-induced upward ion drift was the primary driver of midlatitude SEDs, while convection electric fields dominated high-latitude SED and plume lifting. Differences in SED response between the two phases highlight the role of thermospheric composition and its temporal history in shaping storm-time ionospheric density, including pre-storm modulation, storm-time reinforcement, and interhemispheric asymmetry of magnetic poles with universal time (UT) effect. The prominent southern SED during the sheath phase was attributed to a higher O/N2 ratio from preconditioning and storm-time reinforcement, whereas the expanded convection during the MC phase lowered O/N2 in southern midlatitudes and limited SED growth. The impacts of large-scale traveling atmospheric/ionospheric disturbances (TADs/TIDs) on SED formation were minimal. This study quantifies various factors driving SED formation and highlights the sustained impact of ICME sheath during a double-dip storm on ionosphere-thermosphere dynamics and the role of thermospheric composition in modulating SED location, characteristics, and hemispheric asymmetry.
