The coincident observations of nighttime thermospheric zonal neutral winds and equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) drift velocities over Brazil during the October–December,2009 and 2010 are used to examine the coupling relationship between the thermosphere and ionosphere. The EPB zonal drift velocities are estimated using the airglow images recorded by optical imaging system, while the neutral winds are measured by using a bi-static Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) experiment deployed at two stations from Brazil. The results reveal the similar pattern in the EPB drift velocities and zonal neutral winds motion during the nighttime and night-to-night thereby illustrating a fully developed F-region dynamo. However, background natural winds also exceed EPBs velocities especially during the development phase of EPBs illustrating that F-region dynamo is not fully activated.Journal of Institute of Science and Technology, 2015, 20(2): 84-89

<p>China, from north to south, spans from the middle latitudes to the low latitude both in geographic latitude and geomagnetic latitude. And China has a variety of topography environment, which including high lands, plains, seas, and long coasts. To better understand topographic and latitudinal effects on the mesosphere and thermosphere and features of ionospheric plasma irregularities at various latitudes in China, we have established a ground-based airglow network in China gradually since 2010, which consists of 16 stations. This network almost cover China, which focuses on two airglow layers: the OI (~250 km) and OH (~87 km) airglow layers. The observations from OI airglow layers provide convenience to systematically investigate the morphologic feature and evolution of ionospheric plasma irregularities over China. Based on the airglow network observations, we mainly report some important research results of ionospheric plasma irregularities in recent years. These findings include (1) statistical characteristic of equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) over China, (2) the influences of severe extreme weather events on the ionosphere, (3) interaction between medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbance (MSTIDs) and ionospheric irregularity, and (4) some new phenomena of ionospheric irregularities.</p>
