题目(Title): Global Plasma Density Irregularity Distributions Observed by Advanced Ionospheric Probe Onboard FORMOSAT-5 Satellite
Abstract:
A FORMOSAT-5 satellite has been launched on 25 August 2017 CST into a 98.28° inclination sun-synchronous circular orbit at 720 km altitude along the 1030/2230 local time sectors. The orbital coverage provides a great opportunity to survey terrestrial ionosphere from equatorial to polar region every two days. Advanced Ionospheric Probe (AIP) is a piggyback science payload developed by National Central University for the FORMOSAT-5 satellite to measure ionospheric plasma concentrations, velocities, and temperatures. It is also capable of measuring ionospheric plasma density irregularities at a sample rate up to 8,192 Hz over a wide range of spatial scales. In this presentation, distributions and structures of pre-midnight low-latitude ionospheric plasma density irregularities will be shown from AIP science data collected since winter 2017. The initial results indicate that seasonal variations of the distributions in a solar minimum (2017/11-2019/07) are very similar to those observations by ROCSAT-1/Ionospheric Plasma and Electrodynamics Instrument dataset (1999-2004) in a solar maximum.
