Abstract. We investigate a non-typical very low frequency (VLF) 1–4 kHz hiss representing a sequence of separated noise bursts with a strange "mushroom-like" shape in the frequency–time domain, each one lasting several minutes. These strange afternoon VLF emissions were recorded at Kannuslehto (KAN, ϕ = 67.74° N, λ = 26.27° E; L ∼ 5.5) in northern Finland during the late recovery phase of the small magnetic storm on 8 December 2013. The left-hand (LH) polarized 2–3 kHz "mushroom caps" were clearly separated from the right-hand (RH) polarized "mushroom stems" at the frequency of about 1.8–1.9 kHz, which could match the lower ionosphere waveguide cutoff (the first transverse resonance of the Earth–ionosphere cavity). We hypothesize that this VLF burst sequence could be a result of the modulation of the VLF hiss electron–cyclotron instability from the strong Pc5 geomagnetic pulsations observed simultaneously at ground-based stations as well as in the inner magnetosphere by the Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms mission probe (THEMIS-E; ThE). This assumption is confirmed by a similar modulation of the intensity of the energetic (1–10 keV) electrons simultaneously observed by the same ThE spacecraft. In addition, the data of the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association (EISCAT) radar at Tromsø show a similar quasi-periodicity in the ratio of the Hall-to-Pedersen conductance, which may be used as a proxy for the energetic particle precipitation enhancement. Our findings suggest that this strange mushroom-like shape of the considered VLF hiss could be a combined mutual effect of the magnetospheric ULF–VLF (ultra low frequency–very low frequency) wave interaction and the ionosphere waveguide propagation.

Abstract The characteristics of passive responses and fixed band gaps of phononic crystals (PnCs) limit their possible applications. For overcoming this shortcoming, a class of tunable PnCs comprised of multiple scatterers and soft periodic porous elastomeric matrices are designed to manipulate the band structures and directionality of wave propagation through the applied deformation. During deformation, some tunable factors such as the coupling effect of scatterer and hole in the matrix, geometric and material nonlinearities, and the rearrangement of scatterer are activated by deformation to tune the dynamic responses of PnCs. The roles of these tunable factors in the manipulation of dynamic responses of PnCs are investigated in detail. The numerical results indicate that the tunability of the dynamic characteristic of PnCs is the result of the comprehensive function of these tunable factors mentioned above. The strong coupling effect between the hole in the matrix and the scatterer contributes to the formation of band gaps. The geometric nonlinearity of matrix and rearrangement of scatterer induced by deformation can simultaneously tune the band gaps and the directionality of wave propagation. However, the matrix's material nonlinearity only adjusts the band gaps of PnCs and does not affect the directionality of wave propagation in them. The research extends our understanding of the formation mechanism of band gaps of PnCs and provides an excellent opportunity for the design of the optimized tunable PnCs and acoustic metamaterials.

Abstract. The high-frequency and small horizontal scale gravity waves may be reflected and ducted in non-hydrostatic simulations, but usually propagate vertically in hydrostatic models. To examine gravity wave propagation, a preliminary study has been conducted with a global ionosphere–thermosphere model (GITM), which is a non-hydrostatic general circulation model for the upper atmosphere. GITM has been run regionally with a horizontal resolution of 0.2° long × 0.2° lat to resolve the gravity wave with wavelength of 250 km. A cosine wave oscillation with amplitude of 30 m s−1 has been applied to the zonal wind at the low boundary, and both high-frequency and low-frequency waves have been tested. In the high-frequency case, the gravity wave stays below 200 km, which indicates that the wave is reflected or ducted in propagation. The results are consistent with the theoretical analysis from the dispersion relationship when the wavelength is larger than the cutoff wavelength for the non-hydrostatic situation. However, the low-frequency wave propagates to the high altitudes during the whole simulation period, and the amplitude increases with height. This study shows that the non-hydrostatic model successfully reproduces the high-frequency gravity wave dissipation.
