Abstract. On the basis of bispectral analysis applied to the hourly data set of neutral wind measured by meteor radar in the MLT region above Bulgaria it was demonstrated that nonlinear processes are frequently and regularly acting in the mesopause region. They contribute significantly to the short-term tidal variability and are apparently responsible for the observed complicated behavior of the tidal characteristics. A Morlet wavelet transform is proposed as a technique for studying nonstationary signals. By simulated data it was revealed that the Morlet wavelet transform is especially convenient for analyzing signals with: (1) a wide range of dominant frequencies which are localized in different time intervals; (2) amplitude and frequency modulated spectral components, and (3) singular, wave-like events, observed in the neutral wind of the MLT region and connected mainly with large-scale disturbances propagated from below. By applying a Morlet wavelet transform to the hourly values of the amplitudes of diurnal and semidiurnal tides the basic oscillations with periods of planetary waves (1.5-20 days), as well as their development in time, are obtained. A cross-wavelet analysis is used to clarify the relation between the tidal and mean neutral wind variability. The results of bispectral analysis indicate which planetary waves participated in the nonlinear coupling with the atmospheric tides, while the results of cross-wavelet analysis outline their time intervals if these interactions are local.Key words: Meteorology and atmospheric dynamics (middle atmosphere dynamics; waves and tides) - Radio science (nonlinear phenomena)

Abstract. In this work a study of the effects of the high-intensity long-duration continuous AE activity (HILDCAAs) events in the magnetotail was conducted. The aim of this study was to search the main frequencies during HILDCAAs in the Bx component of the geomagnetic field in the magnetotail, as well as the main frequencies, at which the magnetotail responds to the solar wind during these events. In order to conduct this analysis the wavelet transform was employed during nine HILDCAA events that coincided with Cluster spacecraft mission crossing through the tail of the magnetosphere from 2003 to 2007. The most energetic periods for each event were identified. It was found that 76 % of them have periods ≤4 h. With the aim to search the periods that have the highest correlation between the IMF Bz (OMNI) component and the Cluster Bx geomagnetic field component, the cross wavelet analysis technique was also used in this study. The majority of correlation periods between the Bz (IMF) and Bx component of the geomagnetic field observed also were ≤4 h, with 62.9 % of the periods. Thus the magnetotail responds stronger to IMF fluctuations during HILDCCAS at 2–4 h scales, which are typical substorm periods. The results obtained in this work show that these scales are the ones on which the coupling of energy is stronger, as well as the modulation of the magnetotail by the solar wind during HILDCAA events.

Abstract. In this work a study of the effects of the High-Intensity Long-Duration Continuous AE activity events (HILDCAAs) in the magnetotail was conducted. The aim of this study was to search the main frequencies during HILDCAAs in the Bx component of the geomagnetic field, as well as at the main frequencies which the magnetotail responds to the solar wind during these events. In order to conduct this analysis the wavelet transform was employed in 9 HILDCAA events that occurred after the Cluster mission (2000) and coincided with the Cluster crossing through the tail of the magnetosphere from 2003 to 2007. Altogether, 25 most energetic periods was observed, which 76 % are ≤ 4 hours. The cross wavelet analysis technique was also used for the development of this study. It was applied to data of the Bz-IMF component and the Bx geomagnetic component, searching to obtain the periods in that had the highest correlation between these two series. To obtain these periods is important to identify frequencies on which the coupling of energy is stronger, as well the modulation of the magnetotail by the solar wind during HILDCAA events. The majority of correlation periods between the Bz (IMF) and Bx component of the geomagnetic field observed also were ≤ 4 hours, with 62.9 % of the periods. Thus the magnetotail responds stronger to IMF fluctuations during HILDCCAS at 2–4 hours scales, which are typical substorm periods.

AbstractWavelet analysis was employed to identify the major frequencies of low-frequency waves present in the Martian magnetosheath. The Morlet wavelet transform was selected and applied to the electron density data, obtained from the Analyzer of Space Plasmas and Energetic Atoms experiment (ASPERA-3), onboard the Mars Express (MEX) spacecraft. We have selected magnetosheath crossings and analyzed electron density data. From a preliminary study of 502 magnetosheath crossings (observed during the year of 2005), we have found 1409 periods between 0.005 and 0.06Hz. The major frequencies observed were in the range 0.005-0.02 Hz with 58.5% of the 1409 frequencies identified.
