Equatorial ionospheric zonal drift model and vertical drift statistics from UHF scintillation measurements in South America
(European Geosciences Union, 2004-09)
UHF scintillation measurements of zonal ionospheric drifts have been conducted at Ancon, Peru since 1994 using antennas spaced in the magnetic east-west direction to cross-correlate geo-synchronous satellite signals. An ...
Quiet time equatorial F region vertical plasma drift model derived from ROCSAT‐1 observations
(American Geophysical Union, 2008-05-03)
We have used five years of measurements on board the ROCSAT‐1 satellite to develop a detailed quiet time global empirical model for equatorial F region vertical plasma drifts. This model describes the local time, seasonal ...
A quiet time empirical model of equatorial vertical plasma drift in the Peruvian sector based on 150 km echoes
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-02-14)
Equatorial vertical plasma drift is an important consequence of the E and F region dynamos. Understanding the climatology of vertical drift can provide significant insight into many ionospheric phenomena. In this study we ...
A simulation study on the impact of altitudinal dependent vertical plasma drift on the equatorial ionosphere in the evening
(American Geophysical Union, 2015-02-28)
We carry out a simulation study on the impact of altitudinal dependent plasma drift on the equatorial ionosphere in the evening, under geomagnetically quiet conditions. Our study used the vertical plasma drift velocity ...
Daytime plasma drifts in the equatorial lower ionosphere
(American Geophysical Union, 2015-10-19)
We have used extensive radar measurements from the Jicamarca Observatory during low solar flux periods to study the quiet time variability and altitudinal dependence of equatorial daytime vertical and zonal plasma drifts. ...
Radar studies of height-dependent equatorial F region vertical and zonal plasma drifts
(American Geophysical Union, 2019-03)
We present the results of an analysis of long-term measurements of ionospheric F region E × B plasma drifts in the American/Peruvian sector. The analysis used observations made between 1986 and 2017 by the incoherent scatter ...
Climatology of F region zonal plasma drifts over Jicamarca
(American Geophysical Union, 2005-12)
We use extensive incoherent scatter radar observations made at the Jicamarca Radio Observatory between 1970 and 2003 to study and model empirically the equatorial zonal plasma drifts near the F region peak using Bernstein ...
On the stability of perpendicular particle drifts in cold magnetoplasmas
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2002)
Assessment of the stability of perpendicular particle drifts in cold magnetoplasmas shows that their free energy can stimulate wave activity under various circumstances that include nonoscillatory (aperiodic, purely growing) ...
