3-D Ionospheric Electron Density Variations during the 2017 Great American Solar Eclipse: A Revisit
Aa, Ercha; Zhang, Shun-Rong; Erickson, Philip J.; Wang, Wenbin; Coster, Anthea J. (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2023-08-31)This paper studies the three-dimensional (3-D) ionospheric electron density variation over the continental US and adjacent regions during the August 2017 Great American Solar Eclipse event, using Millstone Hill incoherent ... -
Conjugate Ionospheric Perturbation During the 2017 Solar Eclipse
Zhang, Shun‐Rong; Erickson, Philip J.; Vierinen, Juha; Aa, Ercha; Rideout, William; e.a. (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2021-01-16)We report new findings of total electron content (TEC) perturbations in the southern hemisphere at conjugate locations to the northern eclipse on August 21, 2017. We identified a persistent conjugate TEC depletion by 10%–15% ... -

Electrified Postsunrise Ionospheric Perturbations at Millstone Hill
Zhang, Shun‐Rong; Erickson, Philip J.; Gasque, L. C.; Aa, Ercha; Rideout, William; e.a. (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2021-09-12) -
Impacts of the Sudden Stratospheric Warming on Equatorial Plasma Bubbles: Suppression of EPBs and Quasi-6-Day Oscillations
Aa, Ercha; Pedatella, Nicholas M.; Liu, Guiping (MDPI AG, 2024-04-21)This study investigates the day-to-day variability of equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) over the Atlantic–American region and their connections to atmospheric planetary waves during the sudden stratospheric warming ... -
Multi-instrumental analysis of the day-to-day variability of equatorial plasma bubbles
Rideout, William; Erickson, Philip J.; Coster, Anthea J.; Zhang, Shun-Rong; Aa, Ercha -
The nighttime ionospheric response and occurrence of equatorial plasma irregularities during geomagnetic storms: a case study
Wan, Xin; Xiong, Chao; Gao, Shunzu; Huang, Fuqing; Liu, Yiwen; e.a. (Springer Singapore, 2021-11-01)Abstract Recent studies revealed that the long-lasting daytime ionospheric enhancements of Total Electron Content (TEC) were sometimes observed in the Asian sector during the recovery phase of geomagnetic ... -

Aa, Ercha; Zhang, Shun‐Rong; Erickson, Philip J.; Coster, Anthea J.; Goncharenko, Larisa P.; e.a. (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2021-06-23)This work conducts a focused study of subauroral ion-neutral coupling processes and midlatitude ionospheric/thermospheric responses in North America during a minor but quite geo-effective storm on September 27–28, 2019 ... -
Statistical Analysis of Equatorial Plasma Irregularities Retrieved From Swarm 2013–2019 Observations
Aa, Ercha; Zou, Shasha; Liu, Siqing (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2020-04) -
