Modeling of Planetary Wave Influences on the Pre‐reversal Enhancement of the Equatorial F Region Vertical Plasma Drift by Y. Yamazaki, C. Diéval

“…Planetary‐wave forcing (periods of 2–20 days) makes contributions to periodic oscillations in the PRE intensity. Especially, the westward‐propagating quasi‐6‐day wave (Q6DW) with zonal wavenumber 1 is found to be an important source of ∼6‐day oscillations of PRE. …”

Exploring the potential location of future earthquakes in Harrat Lunayyir, Western Saudi Arabia by Ali Abdelfattah, Chokri Jallouli, Hassan Alzahrani, Saleh Qaysi, Mohammed Fnais, Abdullah Al-Amri

“…Coulomb stress analysis identified positive stress patterns aligned with a north-northwest (NNW) trend, parallel to the Red Sea rift axis, while negative stress patterns were distributed both eastward and westward. Gravity modelling highlighted crustal heterogeneities with low-density areas corresponding to the seismic activity zone and high-density regions in the surrounding vicinity. …”

When Plasma Streams Tie up Equatorial Plasma Irregularities with Auroral Ones by Irina Zakharenkova, Iurii Cherniak

“…The channels of poleward‐streaming plasma depletions were stretched from low‐latitude base toward higher latitudes—they are found to occur for geomagnetic storms under specific combination of steady southward interplanetary magnetic field, subauroral polarization streams (SAPS) electric fields, and enhanced westward drifts at midlatitudes, resulting in northwestward plasma transportation equatorward of the SAPS region. …”

Field‐Aligned Currents Induced by Magnetopause Motions Under Pressure Perturbations by Boyi Wang, Xinyu Xu, Yukitoshi Nishimura, Yen‐Jung Wu, Zhonghua Xu, Primož Kajdic, De‐Sheng Han, Yi Wang, Xueshang Feng

“…The inward and azimuthal motions of magnetopause caused equatorward‐moving auroral arcs, which extended westward or eastward, centered in the prenoon (12–13 MLT) or postnoon (9–10 MLT) sectors, respectively. …”

The Borrachudos Granitic Suite: Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic A-type Magmatism in the Southeastern São Francisco Craton (SE Brazil) by IVO ANTONIO DUSSIN, MARIO LUIZ S.C. CHAVES, TANIA MARA DUSSIN, PHILLIPPE ROSSI, JACQUES CHARVET

“…We propose that BGS is associated to crustal melting induced by mantle diapirism or mantle derived magmas related to the Paleoproterozoic extensional tectonic that produced crustal rifting, westward, precursory to the Espinhaço Supergroup basin. …”

Isolation of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 Virus from Saker Falcons (Falco cherrug) in the Middle East by Henju Marjuki, Ulrich Wernery, Hui-Ling Yen, John Franks, Patrick Seiler, David Walker, Scott Krauss, Robert G. Webster

“…However, the viruses appeared to have spread westward via different flyways. It remains unknown how these viruses spread so rapidly from Qinghai after the 2005 outbreak and how they were introduced into falcons in these two countries. …”

Development of the Storm‐Induced Ionospheric Irregularities at Equatorial and Middle Latitudes During the 25–26 August 2018 Geomagnetic Storm by Iurii Cherniak, Irina Zakharenkova

“…It is suggested that enhanced westward drifts associated with prompt penetration and Sub Auroral Polarization Stream electric fields can support the northwestward plasma transportation.…”

Strong turbulent flow in the subauroral region in the Antarctic can deteriorate satellite-based navigation signals by D. S. Kotova, A. A. Sinevich, A. A. Chernyshov, D. V. Chugunin, Y. Jin, W. J. Miloch

“…The PJ/SAID is a fast westward ion drift and is one of the main signatures of a geomagnetic disturbance in the subauroral ionosphere at the altitudes of the F-layer, when the geomagnetic AE index reaches more than 500 nT. …”

Assimilation of GNSS Measurements for Estimation of High‐Latitude Convection Processes by Daniel S. Miladinovich, Seebany Datta‐Barua, Aurora López Rubio, Shun‐Rong Zhang, Gary S. Bust

“…For the 17 March 2015 storm, EMPIRE electric potential produces westward zonal ion drifts that more closely agree with incoherent scatter radar (ISR) measurements made at Millstone Hill than the background Weimer 2000 model alone, when electric potential and meridional neutral winds are both corrected. …”

Influences of a Quasi-stationary Front on Particulate Matter in the Low-latitude Plateau Region in China by Wenxuan Fan, Jian Wu, Xiaopeng Li, Fangyuan Yang, Bing Chen, Jun Guo

“…When the KMQSF moved westward from the center of the LoLaP, the easterly wind transported PM to the western part of the region, which led to an increase in the mean daily PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations in Kunming, a capital city in that area; simultaneously, however, the PM10 and PM2.5 levels remained high in Guiyang, a capital city in the eastern part of the LoLaP. …”
