A physical mechanism of positive ionospheric storms at low latitudes and midlatitudes (2010, background): “This electric field is communicated along the geomagnetic field lines to the high‐latitude ionosphere by region 1 field‐aligned currents (R1 FAC) and promptly penetrates to low latitudes with eastward polarity in the dayside and westward polarity in the nightside [e.g., Kikuchi et al., 1978; Kelley”
Prompt penetration electric fields (PPEFs) and their ionospheric effects during the great magnetic storm of 30-31 October 2003 (2008, background): “[2] Although interplanetary-ionospheric coupling has been recognized as an important physical process since the 1960s [Obayashi, 1967; Nishida, 1968; Kelley et al., 1979, 2003], the effect of this coupling was not fully appreciated until the last decade when there was a focus on what is now called…”
Super plasma fountain and equatorial ionization anomaly during penetration electric field (2009, background): “This and other unusually large deviations of the drift velocity on 9 November (Figure 1) are discussed by Fejer et al. [2007] and seem to be due to eastward and westward prompt penetration and disturbance dynamo action [e.g., Kikuchi et al., 2000; Kelley et al., 2003 ].”
Long‐duration penetration of the interplanetary electric field to the low‐latitude ionosphere during the main phase of magnetic storms (2005, background): “Penetration of the IEF to the middleand low-latitude ionosphere has been extensively studied since then through geomagnetic field perturbations and in particular by the incoherent scatter radar chain including the Sondrestrom, Millstone Hill, Arecibo, and Jicamarca radars at 75W geographic longitude”
Equatorial Ionospheric Electric Fields During the November 2004 Magnetic Storm (2007, unknown): “[34] Several studies have presented examples of equatorial electric field fluctuations with time constants of about an hour and lasting for several hours during geomagnetic disturbed conditions [e.g., Gonzales et al., 1979; Kelley et al., 2003 ].”
Sq and EEJ—A Review on the Daily Variation of the Geomagnetic Field Caused by Ionospheric Dynamo Currents (2017, unknown): “During the main phase of a geomagnetic storm, the penetration electric field is sometimes observed to last for several hours without decay (Kelley et al. 2003; Huang et al. 2005a, 2005b).”
Global dayside ionospheric uplift and enhancement associated with interplanetary electric fields (2004, unknown): “…in the equatorial latitudes [Sastri, 1988; Fejer and Scherliess, 1995; Abdu et al., 1995, 2003; Sobral et al., 1997, 2001; Sastri et al., 2002; Kelley et al., 2003], following the early theoretical work of Blanc and Richmond [1980], and/or (2) delayed electric fields produced by the…”
Theoretical study of the low- and midlatitude ionospheric electron density enhancement during the October 2003 superstorm: Relative importance of the neutral wind and the electric field (2005, background): “It is known that the penetrating electric fields fluctuate in time during the storm periods [e.g., Nishida, 1968; Kelley et al., 2003; Fejer and Emmert, 2003], and, since the satellite measurements only provide us measurements of the upward/poleward E B drifts at a given longitude every 97 min, the…”
