2407 Auroral Ionosphere (2704)

Scientific paper

Ionospheric radiance and electron density observed by FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC GOX and TIP payloads respectively are applied to display the boundaries of the auroral oval in the northern hemisphere for study of the auroral ionosphere. The auroral ionosphere were usually observed with incoherent scatter radar (ISR) or in situ measurement along the path of a spacecraft, which provided ionospheric information in a partial region. Due to global observation of FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC satellites, global ionospheric structure can be monitored with the GPS radio occultation technique, especially in high latitude for denser data distribution. Comparing with the ionospheric radiance, which is measured by on-board tiny ionospheric photometer (TIP), this paper reports the boundary of the auroral oval and its variations in the northern hemisphere.
