The photoelectron-driven upper hybrid instability as the cause of 150-km echoes
150 kilometer echoes are strong, coherent echoes observed by equatorial radars looking close to perpendicular to Earth's magnetic field. Observations over a day show a distinct...- publication PDF

Warming pattern over the Northern Hemisphere midlatitudes in boreal summer 1979–2020
Significant surface air temperature warming during summer 1979-2020 is not uniformly distributed in the northern midlatitudes over land but rather is confined to several...- publication PDF
