Electromagnetic Ion Cyclotron Waves in the Magnetosphere Magnetospheric ULF Waves: Synthesis and New Directions - Geophysical Monograph Series, 2006 (Ref: 12882)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are generated in the equatorial … region of the plasmasphere-magnetospherbey internal wave-particle interaction … with ring current ions. In ground observations they are observed as Pc 1-2 (0.1-5 … Hz) waves…

Ionospheric signatures of ULF waves: passive radar techniques Magnetospheric ULF Waves: Synthesis and New Directions - Geophysical Monograph Series, 2006 (Ref: 12879)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A review is presented of passive coherent and incoherent radar observations of … ultra-low-frequency (ULF) waves. Passive radars primarily observe the ionospheric … signatures of the shear Alfven field line resonance (FLR). Recent results … include:

The seasonal variation of ozone in the troposphere and lower stratosphere above … Global Atmosphere Watch stations Macquarie Island (in the subantarctic) and Davis … (in Antarctica) is examined using three years of ozonesonde measurements.

All-sky interferometric meteor radar meteoroid speed estimation using the Fresnel transform Annales Geophysicae, 2007 (Ref: 12856)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Fresnel transform meteor speed estimation is … investigated. A spectral based technique is developed allowing the transform to be applied at low temporal sampling rates. Simulations are used to compare meteoroid … speeds determined using the Fresnel transform and alternative techniques…

UV-B screening potential is higher in two cosmopolitan moss species than in a co-occurring Antarctic endemic moss - implications of continuing ozone depletion Global Change Biology, 2006 (Ref: 12867)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Concentrations of UV-B absorbing pigments and anthocyanins were measured in three moss species, over a summer growing season in Antarctica. Pigment concentrations were compared with a range of climatic variables to determine if there was evidence that pigments were induced by UV-B radiation…
