Statistical correlation of low-altitude ENA emissions with geomagnetic activity from IMAGE/MENA observations
(2022-12-02)
Plasma sheet particles transported Earthward during times of active magnetospheric convection can interact with exospheric/thermospheric neutrals through charge exchange. The resulting Energetic Neutral Atoms (ENAs) are ...

Fast Magnetosonic Waves Observed by Van Allen Probes: Testing Local Wave Excitation Mechanism
(2022-12-01)
Linear Vlasov theory and particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations for electromagnetic fluctuations in a homogeneous, magnetized, and collisionless plasma are used to investigate a fast magnetosonic wave event observed by the Van ...
Trapped and precipitating protons in the inner magnetosphere as seen by IMAGE
(2022-12-02)
[1] Images from the IMAGE satellite of precipitating protons (SU12/FUV) and trapped protons at 8.5 (MENA) and 33 keV (HENA) are compared during three periods: ( 1) 12 August 2000 from 1000 UT to 1145 UT just after the peak ...
Petrology, Geochronology and Tectonic Setting of Early Triassic Alkaline Metagabbros From the Eastern Pontide Orogenic Belt (NE Turkey): Implications for the Geodynamic Evolution of Gondwana's Early Mesozoic Northern Margin
(2022-12-07)
The Triassic geodynamic evolution of the Pontides Belt, which geographically corresponds to northern Anatolia, is still a matter of debate. We present and interpret geological, petrographical, geochemical, and geochronological ...
MATERNAL TRAITS AND REPRODUCTION IN RICHARDSONS GROUND-SQUIRRELS
(2022-12-06)
Differences among conspecifics in body mass result from underlying differences in structural size and physiological condition. To determine whether the structural or physiological component of body mass has a stronger ...
A test of reproductive power in snakes
(2022-12-06)
Reproductive power is a contentious concept among ecologists, and the model has been criticized on theoretical and empirical grounds. Despite these criticisms, the model has successfully predicted the modal (optimal) size ...

(2022-12-09)
Here we provide the R data objects used for the analysis reported in "Does it pay to pay? A comparison of the benefits of open-access publishing across various sub-fields in Biology".
Data from: Dynamics of honey bee colony death and its implications for Varroa destructor mite transmission using observation hives
(2023-01-14)
This dataset contains the data which were collected for the "dynamics of death" research project. There are four data files attached: one readme file, and three sets of data.
Equatorial Pitch Angle Distributions of 1-50 keV Electrons in Earth's Inner Magnetosphere: An Empirical Model Based on the Van Allen Probes Observations
(2023-01-19)
Using 7 years of data from the Helium, Oxygen, Proton, and Electron instrument on the Van Allen Probes, equatorial pitch angle distributions (PADs) of 1-50 keV electrons in Earth's inner magnetosphere are investigated ...
Two-Dimensional gcPIC Simulation of Rising-Tone Chorus Waves in a Dipole Magneitic Field
(2023-01-19)
Rising-tone chorus waves have already been successfully produced in a mirror magnetic field with the use of one- and two-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations. However, in reality, the background magnetic field ...
Ion Bernstein instability as a possible source for oxygen ion cyclotron harmonic waves
(2023-01-18)
This paper demonstrates that an ion Bernstein instability can be a possible source for recently reported electromagnetic waves with frequencies at or near the singly ionized oxygen ion cyclotron frequency, Omega(+)(O), and ...
The Hall Electric Field in Earth's Magnetotail Thin Current Sheet
(2023-01-19)
One of the most important properties of Earth's magnetotail thin current sheet (TCS) is that its current is predominantly contributed by magnetized electrons. The Hall electric field, normal to the TCS and generated by ...

(2023-01-19)
Using a three-dimensional (3-D) global-scale hybrid code, the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) reconnection event around 02:13 UT on 18 November 2015, highlighted in the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) Dayside Kinetic ...
Whistler anisotropy instabilities as the source of banded chorus: Van Allen Probes observations and particle-in-cell simulations
(2023-01-25)
Magnetospheric banded chorus is enhanced whistler waves with frequencies (r)<(e), where (e) is the electron cyclotron frequency, and a characteristic spectral gap at (r)similar or equal to(e)/2. This paper uses spacecraft ...
Effect of continued nitrogen enrichment on greenhouse gas emissions from a wetland ecosystem in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China: A 5 year nitrogen addition experiment
