“…Different criteria have been used to identify INEs in previous studies (e.g., Balan et al, 1994;Gordienko et al, 2001;Jain et al, 2011;Pavlov & Pavlova, 2007;Unnikrishnan et al, 2002;Young et al, 1970), which have been discussed in detail by Liu et al (2013). Figure 2 illustrates the identification process for an INE event in this paper.…”

“…Electron density in the ionospheric F region presents complicated diurnal variations, both at the daytime and nighttime, which still challenges our understanding (e.g., Xu & Liu, 2016). Accumulated investigations have been conducted on the nighttime ionospheric enhancements (Arendt & Soicher, 1964;Balan & Rao, 1987;Chen et al, 2015;Dabas & Kersley, 2003;Davies et al, 1979;Farelo et al, 2002;Gordienko et al, 2001;Jain et al, 2011;Jakowski et al, 1991;Luan et al, 2008;Mikhailov et al, 2000;Pavlov & Pavlova, 2005, 2007Pezzopane et al, 2011;Titheridge, 1968;Trivedi et al, 2013;Tsagouri & Belehaki, 2002;Unnikrishnan et al, 2002;Young et al, 1970). The diurnal peak electron density (NmF2) of the ionospheric F region reaches a peak at nighttime, termed a nighttime enhancement (Titheridge, 1968).…”

“…Ionospheric plasma density usually embarks on a monotonically decreasing trend during nighttime, due to lack of solar radiation that serves as a decisive factor for atmosphere ionization. Even during these times density can, however, be increased due to nighttime plasma density enhancements (NPDEs), a phenomenon that frequently occurs in the F 2 region of middle geomagnetic latitudes and is characterized by a local nighttime peak of electron density (e.g., Balan et al, 1994; Balan & Rao, 1987; Chen et al, 2015; Farelo et al, 2002; Gordienko et al, 2001; Jakowski et al, 2015; Li et al, 2018; Luan et al, 2008; Mikhailov et al, 2000; Park, 1971; Rajesh et al, 2016; Zhong et al, 2019). Observations of frequently occurring midlatitude NPDEs in the summer hemisphere have been classified as midlatitude summer nighttime anomaly structures (MSNAs) by previous studies (e.g., Burns et al, 2011; Chen et al, 2012; Hsu et al, 2011; Lin et al, 2010; Liu & Watanabe, 2008; Thampi et al, 2009).…”
