Advancements in Ionospheric Research and Monitoring in South America

This agenda outlines crucial developments in ionospheric research, emphasizing the Low Latitude Ionospheric Sensor Network (LISN) as South America's first distributed observatory. Key topics include mid to large scale ionospheric perturbation characteristics, ESA’s priorities for effective monitoring, and the impact of ionospheric conditions on ESA missions. Discussions focus on long-term data collection, improved electron density modelling, scintillation monitoring, and the customer-oriented approach at DLT. The aim is to enhance nowcasting and forecasting capabilities regarding equatorial ionosphere phenomena.

  1. SWWT Ionospheric Effects Topical Group • Agenda • The Low-latitude Ionospheric Sensor Network (LISN): The First Distributed Observatory in South AmericaPatricia Doherty, Boston College • Ionospheric mid and large scale perturbation characteristicsN. Jakowski, C. Mayer, C. Borries, German Aerospace Center • ESA's priorities for ionospheric researchBetram Arbesser-Rastburg, ESA • Ionospheric scintillation monitoring and modellingY. Béniguel, IEEA

  2. Wrap up • ESA's priorities • Ionospheric characteristics affecting ESA missions (P-, C- and L-band) • Long-term collection of ionospheric data, improved modelling of distribution of electron density, improved statistics of ionospheric conditions, linking of ionospheric conditions to system performance • Ionospheric perturbations monitoring • Customer oriented approach at DLT (SWACI service) • Many products (perturbations, propagation of disturbances, TIDs,…) • Scintillation monitoring and modelling • In the framework of COST 296 action • Observations from high lat. to equatorial regions • Scintillation data, statistics, models => large share accessible via web portals

  3. The Low Latitude Ionospheric Sensor Network (LISN) http://jro.igp.gob.pe/lisn • To address key questions about the physics of the equatorial ionosphere • Develop nowcast/forecasts capabilities on the onset of Spread F ● Installed ● Planned • 70 GPS Receivers • TEC, TIDs • Scintillation • 5 Ionosondes • Virtual height • Bottomside density profiles • Meridional winds • Nighttime capability • 5 Magnetometers • Monitor ionospheric currents • Measure Vertical plasma drifts Jicamarca
