Background removal from global auroral images: Data driven dayglow modelling
Ohma, Anders; Madelaire, Michael; Laundal, Karl Magnus; Reistad, Jone Peter; Hatch, Spencer Mark; Gasparini, Sara; Walker, Simon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Global images of auroras obtained by cameras on spacecraft are a key tool for studying the near-Earth environment. However, the cameras are sensitive not only to auroral emissions produced by precipitating particles, but ... -
Local Mapping of Polar Ionospheric Electrodynamics
Laundal, Karl Magnus; Reistad, Jone Peter; Hatch, Spencer Mark; Madelaire, Michael; Walker, Simon; Hovland, Amalie Øie; Ohma, Anders; Merkin, V.G.; Sorathia, K.A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)An accurate description of the state of the ionosphere is crucial for understanding the physics of Earth's coupling to space, including many potentially hazardous space weather phenomena. To support this effort, ground ... -
The Lompe code: A Python toolbox for ionospheric data analysis
Hovland, Amalie Øie; Laundal, Karl Magnus; Reistad, Jone Peter; Hatch, Spencer Mark; Walker, Simon; Madelaire, Michael; Ohma, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A recent paper by Laundal et al. (2022c) presented a new technique to combine all available measurements of polar ionospheric electrodynamics; magnetic field measurements from ground and space, ionospheric convection data ... -
Statistical Temporal Variations in the Auroral Electrojet Estimated With Ground Magnetometers in Fennoscandia
Walker, Simon; Laundal, Karl Magnus; Reistad, Jone Peter; Ohma, Anders; Hatch, Spencer Mark (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We present the implementation of an improved technique to coherently model the high-latitude ionospheric equivalent current. Using a fixed selection of 20 ground magnetometers in Fennoscandia, we present a method based on ... -
Three principal components describe the spatiotemporal development of mesoscale ionospheric equivalent currents around substorm onsets
Juusola, Liisa; Viljanen, Ari; Partamies, Noora; Vanhamäki, Heikki; Kellinsalmi, Mirjam; Walker, Simon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Substorms are a commonly occurring but insufficiently understood form of dynamics in the coupled magnetosphere–ionosphere system, associated with space weather disturbances and auroras. We have used principal component ...
