Book The Atmosphere and Climate of Mars

Download or read book The Atmosphere and Climate of Mars written by Robert M. Haberle and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity has long been fascinated by the planet Mars. Was its climate ever conducive to life? What is the atmosphere like today and why did it change so dramatically over time? Eleven spacecraft have successfully flown to Mars since the Viking mission of the 1970s and early 1980s. These orbiters, landers and rovers have generated vast amounts of data that now span a Martian decade (roughly eighteen years). This new volume brings together the many new ideas about the atmosphere and climate system that have emerged, including the complex interplay of the volatile and dust cycles, the atmosphere-surface interactions that connect them over time, and the diversity of the planet's environment and its complex history. Including tutorials and explanations of complicated ideas, students, researchers and non-specialists alike are able to use this resource to gain a thorough and up-to-date understanding of this most Earth-like of planetary neighbours.

Book Magnetosphere Ionosphere Coupling in the Solar System

Download or read book Magnetosphere Ionosphere Coupling in the Solar System written by Charles R. Chappell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a half century of exploration of the Earth’s space environment, it has become evident that the interaction between the ionosphere and the magnetosphere plays a dominant role in the evolution and dynamics of magnetospheric plasmas and fields. Interestingly, it was recently discovered that this same interaction is of fundamental importance at other planets and moons throughout the solar system. Based on papers presented at an interdisciplinary AGU Chapman Conference at Yosemite National Park in February 2014, this volume provides an intellectual and visual journey through our exploration and discovery of the paradigm-changing role that the ionosphere plays in determining the filling and dynamics of Earth and planetary environments. The 2014 Chapman conference marks the 40th anniversary of the initial magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling conference at Yosemite in 1974, and thus gives a four decade perspective of the progress of space science research in understanding these fundamental coupling processes. Digital video links to an online archive containing both the 1974 and 2014 meetings are presented throughout this volume for use as an historical resource by the international heliophysics and planetary science communities. Topics covered in this volume include: Ionosphere as a source of magnetospheric plasma Effects of the low energy ionospheric plasma on the stability and creation of the more energetic plasmas The unified global modeling of the ionosphere and magnetosphere at the Earth and other planets New knowledge of these coupled interactions for heliophysicists and planetary scientists, with a cross-disciplinary approach involving advanced measurement and modeling techniques Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Coupling in the Solar System is a valuable resource for researchers in the fields of space and planetary science, atmospheric science, space physics, astronomy, and geophysics.

Download or read book The Dynamic Magnetosphere written by William Liu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the plethora of monographs published in recent years, few cover recent progress in magnetospheric physics in broad areas of research. While a topical focus is important to in-depth views at a problem, a broad overview of our field is also needed. The volume answers to the latter need. With the collection of articles written by leading scientists, the contributions contained in the book describe latest research results in solar wind-magnetosphere interaction, magnetospheric substorms, magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, transport phenomena in the plasma sheet, wave and particle dynamics in the ring current and radiation belts, and extra-terrestrial magnetospheric systems. In addition to its breadth and timeliness, the book highlights innovative methods and techniques to study the geospace.

Book A Study of the Viscous Interaction Between the Solar Wind and Earth s Magnetosphere Using an MHD Simulation

Download or read book A Study of the Viscous Interaction Between the Solar Wind and Earth s Magnetosphere Using an MHD Simulation written by Robert Jeffrey Bruntz and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetosphere largely through magnetic reconnection and a "viscous-like" interaction that is not fully understood. The ionospheric cross-polar cap potential ([phi]PC) component due to reconnection ([phi]R) is typically much larger than the viscous component ([phi]V) and very dynamic, making detailed studies of the viscous potential difficult. We used the Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry (LFM) magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation to study the viscous potential by running LFM for a variety of solar wind density and velocity values and ionospheric Pedersen conductance ([sigma]P) values, but no solar wind magnetic field, so that [phi]PC was entirely due to the viscous interaction. We found that [phi]V increased with solar wind density, scaling as n0.439 (n in cm-3), and [phi]V increased with solar wind velocity, scaling as V1.33 (V in km s-1); these results were combined to create a formula for [phi]V in LFM, using a [sigma]P value that produces realistic potentials: [phi]V = (0.00431)n0.439V1.33 (in kV), which matches simulation results very well. [phi]V also varied inversely with [sigma]P, as predicted by previous theory. The form of this formula is similar to results from the Newell et al. [2008] empirical study, which tested a list of viscous coupling functions and found that n1/2V2 worked best (but did not create a formula to predict potentials, so actual viscous potential values could not be compared). The Bruntz et al. formula was also compared to LFM results from a run with real solar wind input, from the Whole Heliosphere Interval (WHI), which lasted from 20 March to 16 April 2008. LFM was first run with the full solar wind from the WHI, then with the same solar wind but zero interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), which meant that [phi]PC = [phi]V for that run. These runs were performed with the empirical ionospheric solver, using the average F10.7 flux value from the WHI as input. This empirical ionosphere is known to produce potentials that are higher than observations, so the output was scaled down to match the range of the Bruntz et al. formula with a scaling factor y = 1.542, which was found from 11 steady periods in the WHI. Those same periods were also used to calibrate the Newell et al. viscous scaling factor, turning it into a predictive formula: [phi]V = (6.39 x10-5)n1/2V2 (in kV). Both viscous potential formulas were compared to [phi]PC from the zero-IMF run, producing [phi]V values that were very close to the LFM [phi]PC values, differing in opposite ways in some places, but with essentially identical correlation coefficients. We also used the y factor to scale [phi]PC from the full-IMF LFM run down, then compared it to [phi]PC from the Weimer05 empirical model. The two matched well in the higher [phi]PC values, but the Weimer05 [phi]PC values reached a minimum "floor" value, while the LFM [phi]PC has no such floor, and so dropped much lower in some places. The fact that y scaled the full-IMF LFM down to match the Weimer05 values, even though y was derived from very different runs and conditions, is interpreted to support the idea that the cause of high LFM potentials is in the ionospheric conductivity, since y is derived from the higher-conductivity-based Bruntz et al. formula.

Book The Evolution and Motion of Transient Events in the Solar Wind magnetosphere Interaction

Download or read book The Evolution and Motion of Transient Events in the Solar Wind magnetosphere Interaction written by Yaireska Marie Collado-Vega and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instabilities in the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction govern the entry of solar wind particles into the Earth's magnetosphere. These particles could ultimately be responsible for serious damage to our current technological systems. I use simulations and observations to investigate two kinds of instabilities that occur during unsteady interaction, magnetopause vortices and bursty reconnection resulting in flux transfer events (FTEs). For the magnetopause vortices analysis, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations were generated. Two cases were run, one for a nominal speed solar wind (360 km/s) and another for a high speed solar wind (700 km/s). Both cases had an abrupt change in the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation; 15 minutes being southward, -5 nT, and then turning northward, +5 nT, for two hours. No other parameter was changed in these runs. Using an IDL-based tool, I visualized the 2D and 3D nature of the vortices and compared my results with those obtained previously by Collado-Vega et al. (2007) who studied vortices using simulated MHD data initiated by real solar wind conditions. The characteristics of the vortices formed under dynamic solar wind conditions are consistent with vortices driven by surface waves on the magnetopause, like the Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability. However, the majority of those developed under steady solar wind conditions suggest otherwise, especially the ones that developed on the dayside which are believed to be formed by the convection pattern created by high latitude reconnection. For the study of FTEs, I focus on Cluster satellite magnetopause encounters. The Cluster satellites orbit in a tetrahedral formation in near-polar orbits. I identified FTEs in Cluster observations from 2002 to 2003, and a total of 109 events were counted in the data set. A comparison of the analytical and global MHD simulation results indicates that most of the events form by component reconnection along a tilted subsolar reconnection line, move antisunward with the magnetosheath flow, and have long spatial extent. The events that were observed to have a motion opposite to the magnetosheath motion were found to have a strong By IMF component that can contribute to the flow reversal process.
