Whistler Influence on the Overall Very Low Frequency Wave Intensity in the Upper Ionosphere

Abstract: We investigate the influence of lightning‐generated whistlers on the overall intensity of electromagnetic waves measured by the Detection of Electro‐Magnetic Emissions Transmitted from Earthquake Regions spacecraft (2004–2010, quasi Sun‐synchronous polar orbit with an altitude of about 700 km) at frequencies below 18 kHz. Whistler occurrence rate evaluated using an onboard neural network designed for automated whistler detection is used to distinguish periods of high and low whistler occurrence rates. It is sh… Show more

“…It must be due to the moving satellite to which the raypaths must connect, slicing through plasma structures along the raypath. All three of the clusters in Figure 12 are below 100 s 1/2 phase dispersion or~8 s 1/2 group dispersion D. This is in the range classified by the cited DEMETER (Zahlava et al, 2018) study as fractional hop due to terrestrial lightning. Figure 13 shows the time-integrated phase dispersion found by the automated algorithm within the two prolific records for the magnetic inclination at the satellite (a) −44.2°and (b) −2.2°.…”

“…Whistlers are important because they induce electron precipitation from the radiation belts (see Inan et al, ; Gemelos et al, ; Bourriez et al, , and references therein). Whistlers also significantly impact the overall wave intensity in the magnetosphere (Colman & Starks, ; Němec et al, ; Záhlava et al, ). This is specially the case during nighttime when the wave attenuation in the ionosphere is lower (Cohen et al, ; Graf et al, ).…”
