A statistical analysis of ionospheric anomalies before 736 M6.0+ earthquakes during 2002-2010 (2011, unknown): “…it is not sufficient to draw the conclusion that these anomalies are really related to the incoming earthquake because the ionospheric F2 layer has significant day‐to‐day variation [Forbes et al., 2000; Rishbeth and Mendillo, 2001; Mendillo et al., 2002] and it might link with the lower atmosphere.”
Storms in the ionosphere: Patterns and processes for total electron content (2006, background): “Upward coupling is a highly significant mechanism contributing to the overall day-to-day variability of the ionosphere [Forbes et al., 2000; Rishbeth and Mendillo, 2001; Mendillo et al., 2002]; increased progress in this area is a critical need.”
Electron and ion density variations before strong earthquakes (M>6.0) using DEMETER and GPS data (2010, background): “The sign of the anomaly could be justified by the ionosphere large day-to-day variability owing to the solar irradiation variability, meteorological influences and solar wind energy input (Rishbeth and Mendillo, 2001).”
Ionospheric variability due to planetary waves and tides for solar minimum conditions (2010, background): “Statistical studies also establish correlation between ionospheric variability and the Kp or Ap index [Rishbeth and Mendillo, 2001; Pancheva et al., 2002; Altadill and Apostolov, 2003; Xiong et al., 2006].”
Equatorial and Low Latitude Ionospheric Effects During Sudden Stratospheric Warming Events (2011, methodology): “These variations are comparable to ionospheric changes related to geomagnetic activity (e.g., Fuller-Rowell et al. 2000; Rishbeth and Mendillo 2001; Forbes et al. 2000).”
Impact of sudden stratospheric warmings on equatorial ionization anomaly (2010, background): “The estimated portion of ionospheric variability not accounted for by these drivers is typically ∼20% of the F‐region maximum electron density at daytime and ∼33% at night [i.e., Forbes et al., 2000; Rishbeth and Mendillo, 2001; Mendillo et al., 2002].”
