 Knowledge about the ionospheric response to the geomagnetic storms is needed to support SWIFtS activity in Space Science Center-LAPAN. However, it is difficult to predict its behavior. As an approach, it needs a model of the ionospheric response to geomagnetic storms. In this paper, the modeling of the Indonesia ionospheric storms to the geomagnetic storm was done by modifying the global empirical models developed by Araujo-Pradere. By using ap index data, Dst index, and foF2 ionosphere from BPAA Sumedang of 2005-2015, it was obtained the Indonesia ionospheric storms model related to the geomagnetic storm. The analysis result showed that the Sumedang ionospheric storms model had a deviation or error < 40% of the data. Therefore it can be concluded that this models can be used to support the SWIFtS activity in Space Science Center-LAPAN for future space weather conditions.  AbstrakPengetahuan tentang respon ionosfer terhadap badai geomagnet sangat diperlukan untuk mendukung kegiatan SWIFtS di Pusat Sains Antariksa-LAPAN.

&lt;p&gt;During the solar activity cycle 24, which started at the end of 2008, Sun was behaving silently and there were not many spectacular geoeffective events. Here we analyze the geomagnetic storm which happened on July 15 of 2012 in the 602 anniversary of the famous Polish Battle of Grunwald. According to the NOAA scale, it was G3 geomagnetic storm with Bz heliospheric magnetic field component dropping up to -20 nT, Dst index below -130 nT, AE index greater than 1300 nT and ap index being above 130 nT. It was proceeded by the solar flare of X1.4 class on 12 of July. This geomagnetic storm was accompanied by the fast halo coronal mass ejection 16:48:05 on 12 of July-the first C2 appearance, with the apparent speed 885 km/s and space speed 1405 km/s. This geomagnetic storm was classified as the fourth of the strongest geomagnetic storms from SC 24. Around that time in Polish electric transmission lines infrastructure, there was observed a significant growth of the number of failures that might be of solar origin.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Acknowledgments: the Polish National Science Centre, grant number 2016/22/E/HS5/00406.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Space weather research is the principal activity at the Space Science Center, Lapan to learn characteristics and generator source of the space weather so that can mitigate its the impact on the Earth's environment as mandated in Law No. 21 Year 2013. One of them is the phenomenon of geomagnetic storms. Geomagnetic storms caused by the entry of solar wind together with the IMF Bz that leads to the south. The behavior of the solar wind parameters together with the IMF Bz before geomagnetic storms can determine the formation of geomagnetic storms that caused it. In spite that, by the solar wind parameters and IMF Bz behavior before geomagnetic storm can be estimated its intensity through the equation Dst * = 1.599 * Ptotal - 34.48. The result of this equation is obtained that the Dst minimum deviation between the raw data and the output of this equation to the geomagnetic storm events on March 17, 2013 is about of -2.51 nT or 1.9% and on the geomagnetic storm events on February 19, 2014 is about of 2.77 nT or 2, 5%. Thus, the equation Dst * = 1.599 * Ptotal - 34.48 is very good for the estimation of geomagnetic storms.

The ionospheric response to a geomagnetic storm is a geophysical process. Although strong geomagnetic storms input more energy into the Earth’s upper atmosphere, the ionospheric response often does not reflect the same level of variation as the geomagnetic storm, and the response may be weak during a very strong storm. However, the estimated ionospheric response to geomagnetic activity also varies with extraction method. Here, two different methods—the spectral whitening method (SWM) and the monthly median method (MMM)—are used to verify whether the apparent weak ionospheric response is an artifact of the processing method. The weak ionospheric response is found with both methods, which suggests it is a real ionospheric phenomenon. The statistical characteristics of the regional and global ionospheric weak response to a super geomagnetic storm (SGS) and to an SGS with a preceding storm event (SGS-PRE) are investigated and compared. The results show that the regional ionospheric weak response to an SGS is more prevalent at middle latitudes than those at low and high latitudes. The global ionospheric weak response occurs more frequently under high solar activity and has a strong correlation with SGS-PRE, which suggests that the effect of a storm on the ionosphere can be influenced by its preconditioning, especially when there is an earlier storm and the time interval between the two storms is short. In fact, an ionospheric long-lasting disturbance may be an important reason for the ionospheric weak response caused by the SGS-PRE.

Abstract. Current theories of F-layer storms are discussed using numerical simulations with the Upper Atmosphere Model, a global self-consistent, time dependent numerical model of the thermosphere-ionosphere-plasmasphere-magnetosphere system including electrodynamical coupling effects. A case study of a moderate geomagnetic storm at low solar activity during the northern winter solstice exemplifies the complex storm phenomena. The study focuses on positive ionospheric storm effects in relation to thermospheric disturbances in general and thermospheric composition changes in particular. It investigates the dynamical effects of both neutral meridional winds and electric fields caused by the disturbance dynamo effect. The penetration of short-time electric fields of magnetospheric origin during storm intensification phases is shown for the first time in this model study. Comparisons of the calculated thermospheric composition changes with satellite observations of AE-C and ESRO-4 during storm time show a good agreement. The empirical MSISE90 model, however, is less consistent with the simulations. It does not show the equatorward propagation of the disturbances and predicts that they have a gentler latitudinal gradient. Both theoretical and experimental data reveal that although the ratio of [O]/[N2] at high latitudes decreases significantly during the magnetic storm compared with the quiet time level, at mid to low latitudes it does not increase (at fixed altitudes) above the quiet reference level. Meanwhile, the ionospheric storm is positive there. We conclude that the positive phase of the ionospheric storm is mainly due to uplifting of ionospheric F2-region plasma at mid latitudes and its equatorward movement at low latitudes along geomagnetic field lines caused by large-scale neutral wind circulation and the passage of travelling atmospheric disturbances (TADs). The calculated zonal electric field disturbances also help to create the positive ionospheric disturbances both at middle and low latitudes. Minor contributions arise from the general density enhancement of all constituents during geomagnetic storms, which favours ion production processes above ion losses at fixed height under day-light conditions.Key words: Atmospheric composition and structure (thermosphere · composition and chemistry) · Ionosphere (ionosphere · atmosphere interactions; modelling and forecasting)

Langmuir probe data obtained during the storm period March 20–23, 1990, on board the MAGION-2 subsatellite of the ACTIVNY experiment are analyzed to study the plasmaspheric and ionospheric response to a magnetic storm. The data indicate a well-pronounced equatorward edge of the electron density trough in the afternoon (18:15 LT) at about 800 km height that moves towards lower latitudes during the course of the storm. It is interesting to note that the electron density inside the plasmasphere is increased by more than 20% in the morning shortly after sunrise (07:30 LT). This is due to enhanced O+ densities in the lower plasmasphere during the growth phase of the geomagnetic storm as measured by the ion mass spectrometer NAM-5 onboard the main satellite. It is suggested that the source for the increased density is thermospheric Joule heating at auroral latitudes with a commensurate increase in thermospheric pressure. This increased pressure causes the local thermosphere to expand both upward and equatorward. The increased atomic-oxygen scale height coupled with equatorward motion of fhermospheric perturbations results in an increased O density and resulting O+ density within the lower plasmasphere. The observations indicate a storm-induced compression of the plasmasphere that favourizes an enhanced outflow of plasma into the ionosphere leading to an increased nighttime F2-layer ionization and a depletion of the plasmasphere during the following hours.

A full halo coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are most energetic solar events that eject huge amount of mass and magnetic fields into heliosphere with 360o angular angle. The full halo CME effect on the ionosphere can be determined from the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) derived from GPS data. GPS data from BAKO station in Cibinong, satellite orbital data (brcd files) and intrumental bias data (DCB files) have been used to obtain TEC using GOPI software. Analysis of  the full halo CME data, Dst index, and TEC during October 2003 and February 2014 showed that the full halo CME could cause ionospheric disturbances called ionospheric storms. Magnitude and time delay of the ionospheric storms  depended on the full halo CME speed. For the high-speed full halo CME, the negative ionospheric storm generally occured during recovery phase of the geomagnetic storm. When the initial phase of geomagnetic disturbance with increasing Dst index more than +30 nT, the ionospheric storm occured during main phase of geomagnetic disturbance although the main phase of geomagnetic disturbance did not reach geomagnetic storm condition. ABSTRAKCoronal mass ejection  (CME) halo penuh merupakan peristiwa matahari  berenergi tinggi, yang menyemburkan massa dan medan magnet ke heliosfer dengan sudut angular sebesar 360º. Efek  CME halo penuh pada ionosfer dapat diketahui dari Total Electron Content (TEC). Data GPS BAKO di Cibinong, data orbit satelit (file brcd) dan data bias instrumental (file DCB) dapat digunakan untuk penentuan TEC menggunakan software GOPI. Analisis data CME halo penuh, indeks Dst, dan TEC selama bulan Oktober 2003 dan Februari 2014 menunjukkan bahwa CME halo penuh dapat menimbulkan gangguan ionosfer yang disebut badai ionosfer. Besar dan selang waktu badai ionosfer setelah terjadinya CME, tergantung pada kelajuan CME halo penuh. Untuk CME halo penuh berkelajuan tinggi, badai ionosfer negatif umumnya terjadi pada fase pemulihan badai geomagnet. Jika fase awal gangguan geomagnet diawali dengan peningkatan indeks Dst melebihi +30 nT, maka badai ionosfer dapat terjadi pada fase utama gangguan geomagnet walau gangguan geomagnet setelah  fase awal tidak mencapai kondisi badai geomagnet.

Abstract. Total electron content (TEC) is extensively used to monitor the ionospheric behavior under geomagnetically quiet and disturbed conditions. This subject is of greatest importance for space weather applications. Under disturbed conditions the two main sources of electric fields, which are responsible for changes in the plasma drifts and for current perturbations, are the short-lived prompt penetration electric fields (PPEFs) and the longer-lasting ionospheric disturbance dynamo (DD) electric fields. Both mechanisms modulate the TEC around the globe and the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) at low latitudes. In this work we computed vertical absolute TEC over the low latitude of South America. The analysis was performed considering HILDCAA (high-intensity, long-duration, continuous auroral electrojet (AE) activity) events and geomagnetic storms. The characteristics of storm-time TEC and HILDCAA-associated TEC will be presented and discussed. For both case studies presented in this work (March and August 2013) the HILDCAA event follows a geomagnetic storm, and then a global scenario of geomagnetic disturbances will be discussed. Solar wind parameters, geomagnetic indices, O ∕ N2 ratios retrieved by GUVI instrument onboard the TIMED satellite and TEC observations will be analyzed and discussed. Data from the RBMC/IBGE (Brazil) and IGS GNSS networks were used to calculate TEC over South America. We show that a HILDCAA event may generate larger TEC differences compared to the TEC observed during the main phase of the precedent geomagnetic storm; thus, a HILDCAA event may be more effective for ionospheric response in comparison to moderate geomagnetic storms, considering the seasonal conditions. During the August HILDCAA event, TEC enhancements from  ∼  25 to 80 % (compared to quiet time) were observed. These enhancements are much higher than the quiet-time variability observed in the ionosphere. We show that ionosphere is quite sensitive to solar wind forcing and considering the events studied here, this was the most important source of ionospheric responses. Furthermore, the most important source of TEC changes were the long-lasting PPEFs observed on August 2013, during the HILDCAA event. The importance of this study relies on the peculiarity of the region analyzed characterized by high declination angle and ionospheric gradients which are responsible for creating a complex response during disturbed periods.
