Article
Full-text available
Launched on 22 November 2013, Swarm is the fourth in a series of pioneering Earth Explorer missions and also the European Space Agency’s (ESA’s) first constellation to advance our understanding of the Earth’s magnetic field and the near-Earth electromagnetic environment. Swarm provides an ideal platform in the topside ionosphere for observing ultra...
Article
Full-text available
Learning from successful applications of methods originating in statistical mechanics, complex systems science, or information theory in one scientific field (e.g., atmospheric physics or climatology) can provide important insights or conceptual ideas for other areas (e.g., space sciences) or even stimulate new research questions and approaches. Fo...

In 2023, the ESA’s Swarm constellation mission celebrates 10 years in orbit, offering one of the best ever surveys of the topside ionosphere. Among its achievements, it has been recently demonstrated that Swarm data can be used to derive space-based geomagnetic activity indices, similar to the standard ground-based geomagnetic indices monitoring ma...

Full-text available
Plain Language Summary Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) flowing along electrically conductive infrastructure, such as power transmission lines, are produced by a naturally induced geoelectric field during geomagnetic disturbances, such as magnetic storms. GIC can cause widespread blackouts across power grids, resulting in the loss of electri...
Article
We show that time variations in the ring current and auroral electrojets in 2015, during which three major magnetic storms (MSs) occurred, are recorded in several specific ways by ground magnetometers. Specifically, we show that the time variations in magnetic field intensity have power-law wavelet spectra. The variations in ring current intensity...

Full-text available
Ultra-low frequency (ULF) magnetospheric plasma waves play a key role in the dynamics of the Earth’s magnetosphere and, therefore, their importance in Space Weather phenomena is indisputable. Magnetic field measurements from recent multi-satellite missions (e.g., Cluster, THEMIS, Van Allen Probes and Swarm) are currently advancing our knowledge on...
Conference Paper
Understanding physical processes that drive dynamics of the radiation belts - the high-energy charged particle population trapped by the geomagnetic field in the inner magnetosphere, is of great importance for science and society. In fact, this population dynamically interacts with the solar wind and geomagnetic field over various temporal and spat...
Article
Full-text available
Plain Language Summary Ground‐based geomagnetic activity indices have been used for decades to monitor the dynamics of the Earth's magnetosphere, and provide information on two major types of space weather phenomena, that is, magnetic storm and magnetospheric substorm occurrence and intensity. This study demonstrates how magnetic field data from a...
Article
Full-text available
Our goal in this study is to investigate the dynamical complexity of the electron density profiles in the topside ionosphere as measured by the Swarm mission, employing the use of symbolic information-theoretic techniques. We perform a Block entropy analysis for a time interval associated with the most intense magnetic storm of solar cycle 24, whic...
Article
Full-text available
The continuously expanding toolbox of nonlinear time series analysis techniques has recently highlighted the importance of dynamical complexity to understand the behavior of the complex solar wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere–thermosphere coupling system and its components. Here, we apply new such approaches, mainly a series of entropy methods to the t...
Article
Full-text available
The ionospheric response to solar and interplanetary disturbances has been the subject of intense study for several decades. For 5 years now, the European Space Agency's Swarm fleet of satellites surveys the Earth's topside ionosphere, measuring magnetic and electric fields at low-Earth orbit with unprecedented detail. Herein, we study in situ the...
Article

This paper reports an attempt to use ultra-low-frequency (ULF) magnetic field data from a space weather monitoring magnetometer array in the study of earthquake (EQ) precursors in Greece. The data from four magnetometer stations of the HellENIc GeoMagnetic Array (ENIGMA) have been analyzed in the search for possible precursors to a strong EQ that o...

In this study, we performed basic methods used widely in satellite imagery, in order to unmix and, later on, classify multispectral images. Our data is Sentinel-2 products, depicting the same ground area in two different seasons, August 2015 (summer) and October 2016 (autumn), respectively, subsetted at three different spatial resolutions (10m, 20m...
