Modeling TEC Irregularities in the Arctic Ionosphere Using Empirical Orthogonal Function Method by Yaqi Jin, Wojciech J. Miloch, Daria Kotova, Knut Stanley Jacobsen, Đorđe Stevanović, Lasse B. N. Clausen, Nicholas Ssessanga, Federico DaDalt

“…Furthermore, different EOF components can reflect different drivers of ionospheric irregularities. The first EOF reflects the averaged ROTI activity and the impact of the solar radiation and geomagnetic activity; the second EOF reflects the impact of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz and electric field; the third and fourth EOFs reflect the dawn‐dusk asymmetry around the auroral oval and polar cap, and they can be related to the IMF By. …”
