    Scintillation modeling (2021)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-01-07
    Description: In this chapter, some scintillation models are described, taking into account of the dynamical nature of the Earth's ionosphere and its “complexity.” After a short description of the problem, a detailed explanation is provided about the propagation model named WAM, after its authors Wernik, Alfonsi, and Materassi. WAM is a propagation model based on a phase screen approach, where the statistical characteristics of the screen are constructed according to in situ data of ionospheric irregularities. Then, the Ground-Based Scintillation Climatology (GBSC) model is presented; this is a tool based on a wide statistical database from high performance receivers.

    High-latitude polar pattern of ionospheric electron density: Scaling features and IMF dependence (2021)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-05-12
    Description: We investigated the average polar patterns of ionospheric electron density and the corresponding patterns of scaling features as a function of interplanetary magnetic field orientation. The focus is on the Northern Hemisphere using electron density data recorded on-board ESA Swarm A satellite. The first- and second-order scaling exponents have been evaluated by means of the -order structure functions. We used electron density measurements over a period of 15 months from April 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015, which corresponds to the maximum of solar cycle 24 and which is characterized by an average value of the solar radio flux (F10.7) index equal to (140+/- 30) sfu. Electron density, first- and second-order scaling exponents have been mapped and discussed for four main IMF orientations provided by Bx and By components under conditions of high solar activity. Large spatial changes of the second-order scaling exponent pattern are observed with a steepening of the associated spectral exponent in correspondence with the nightside polar cap trailing edge. Intermittency, defined as the departure from linearity of the dependence of scaling exponents on moment order q, is also evaluated finding that it is generally higher near the equatorward boundary of the auroral oval than elsewhere. On the whole, the found patterns of the electron density first- and second-order scaling exponents suggest the occurrence of turbulence at the high latitudes.

    On the Multifractal Features of Low‐Frequency Magnetic Field Fluctuations in the Field‐Aligned Current Ionospheric Polar Regions: Swarm Observations (2020)
    Wiley Agu
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-19
    Description: Recent findings on the nature of magnetic field fluctuations in the high-latitude ionospheric regions have suggested the existence of scaling features, which are the signature of the occurrence of turbulence. These features mainly characterize the magnetic field fluctuations in those regions where the field-aligned currents flow. Here, we investigate the nature of the Earth's magnetic field fluctuations using the high-resolution (50 Hz) magnetic measurements from the European Space Agency Earth's observation mission Swarm. Our study indicates that spatiotemporal anomalous scaling features characterize low-frequency magnetic field fluctuations in the high-latitude ionospheric regions of field-aligned currents at spatial scales in the range 0.8–80 km (timescales in the range 0.1–10 s). The signature of a multifractal nature of these fluctuations suggests a highly complex structure of the field-aligned currents. Our results support the view of inhomogeneous (filamentary) field-aligned currents, which can have relevant implications in the comprehension of the physical processes responsible for the magnetospheric-ionospheric coupling and ionospheric heating.

    Intermittency and Passive Scalar Nature of Electron Density Fluctuations in the High-Latitude Ionosphere at Swarm Altitude (2020)
    Wiley Agu
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-19
    Description: Some physical processes due to Sun-Earth interaction can influence the configuration and the dynamics of the high-latitude ionospheric plasma, particularly during geomagnetically disturbed periods. A possible consequence of this interaction is the occurrence of turbulent fluctuations that can be observed both in magnetic and electric fields and plasma density. Here, we focus on the intermittent nature of high-latitude ionospheric electron density fluctuations during geomagnetically disturbed periods as observed by one of the satellites of the ESA-Swarm constellation. The most obvious finding emerging from this study is the strong intermittent character of electron density fluctuations and the existence of an agreement between the anomalous scaling features of electron density fluctuations and those expected from a passive scalar quantity in fluid turbulence. This latter result supports the view of a passive scalar behavior of electron density in the high-latitude ionosphere that can have significant implications in the field of SpaceWeather studies.
