Multi-instrument observations of large-scale atmospheric gravity waves/traveling ionospheric disturbances associated with enhanced auroral activity over Svalbard

Abstract: This study reports on observations of atmospheric gravity waves/traveling ionospheric disturbances (AGWs/TIDs) using Global Positioning System (GPS) total electron content (TEC) and Fabry-Perot Interferometer's (FPI) intensity of oxygen red line emission at 630 nm measurements over Svalbard on the night of 6 January 2014. TEC TIDs have primary periods ranging between 29 and 65 minutes and propagate at a mean horizontal velocity of ∼749-761 m/s with azimuth of ∼345 •-347 • (which corresponds to poleward propaga… Show more

“…The horizontal wavelengths values for these TIDs in Figures 4a and 4d are 1,104 km and 737 km, respectively. Based on these characteristics, these structures can be classified as medium to large‐scale TIDs (Hocke & Schlegel, 1996; Hunsucker, 1982; Katamzi‐Joseph et al., 2019).…”

“…Generally, equatorward large‐scale TIDs are linked to auroral region Joule heating, particle precipitation and Lorentz‐coupling processes during geomagnetically disturbed conditions (Balthazor & Moffett, 1997; Borries et al., 2016; Davis, 1971; Hines, 1960; Hunsucker, 1982; Hocke & Schlegel, 1996; Katamzi‐Joseph et al., 2019; Lei et al., 2008, and references therein). It is now well established from a variety of studies that fluctuations in energy within the auroral regions caused by geomagnetic storm related processes, significantly influence thermospheric composition, through contributing to equatorward large‐scale TIDs (Balthazor & Moffett, 1997; Hocke & Schlegel, 1996; Hunsucker, 1982, and references therein).…”
