The solar-wind magnetosphere interaction primarily occurs at altitudes where the dipole
component of Earth's magnetic field is dominating. The disturbances that are created in this …

The nondipolar portions of the Earth's main magnetic field constitute substantial differences
between the two hemispheres. Beside the magnetic flux densities and patterns being …

We test and compare a number of existing models predicting the location of magnetic
reconnection at Earth's dayside magnetopause for various solar wind conditions. We employ …

The Earth's dipole tilt angle changes both diurnally and seasonally and introduces
numerous variabilities in the coupled magnetosphere‐ionosphere system. By altering the …

This is the third in a series of papers that investigate the semi-annual, annual and Universal
Time variations in the magnetosphere. In this paper, we use the empirical model of …

The magnetic reconnection process at the Earth's magnetopause is observed at various
times and places as either anti‐parallel or component reconnection. The two scenarios are …

Previous studies have revealed that ion drift and neutral wind speeds at~ 400 km in the
polar cap (> 80° magnetic latitude) are on average larger in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) …

A quasi‐semidiurnal type pattern was observed earlier in the diurnal UT variation of the
geomagnetic storms studied using mainly Kyoto Dst (disturbance storm‐time) index …

We study the relationship of equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) to the occurrence of
nighttime equatorial spread F (ESF) using data from ground-based GPS stations and a …

We investigate the effects of solar illumination and the substorm process on the auroral
electrojets using CHAMP high‐resolution magnetic field data obtained over a period of 10 …
