Description: This movie shows Magnetosphere and Ionosphere parameters for a solar event in May 2005. Notice the auroral activity on May 15, 2005 @ 6:00 (about 13 seconds into the video). The Ionosphereic electron density in the E-region is visualized first, with a transition to the F region electron density, followed by a transition to the F-region neutral temperature. Models Used: Credits: Created by Pete Schmitt and Mike Wiltberger with direction from Stan Solomon, Alan Burns and Wenbin Wang. download a high-resolution version of this movie |

Description: This video shows the F2 peak electron densities at local midnight averaged for a period around the December solstice. High electron densities occur in an oval over the Weddell Sea. An odd feature of this anomaly is that peak electron densities occur at night over this sea. Models Used: download a high-resolution version of this movie |
