Characterization of high-m ULF wave signatures in GPS TEC data
GPS total electron content (TEC) measurements were used to investigate high-m ultralow frequency (ULF) waves during the recovery phase of a geomagnetic storm. ULF wave signals...- publication PDF

Equatorial plasma bubbles developing around sunrise observed by an all-sky...
A large number of studies have shown that equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) occur mainly after sunset, and they usually drift eastward. However, in this paper, an unusual EPB...- publication PDF
