Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Coupling and Associated Wave Activity

Objectif

This project will study a class of atmospheric waves (known as atmospheric gravity waves) and associated travelling ionospheric disturbances at high latitudes, along with the possible connections between this wave activity and geomagnetic activity. The project will use data obtained using the Tromso Dynasonde (electron density and ionospheric tilts) between January 2014 and December 2016. The project will fully investigate the spectral characteristics of the data, along with the statistical distribution of the propagation parameters, and their altitude and temporal variability. The final goal is to identify possible correlations between these parameters and indicators of the level of geomagnetic activity. The project is submitted by a researcher with substantial experience in the subject areas, originally gained in during his PhD studies at the University of Colorado. The applicant is seeking the fellowship to aid in his reintegration at the Institute of Space Science in Romania.
