“…Naturally, multiple studies have demonstrated SSW effects in various ionospheric parameters, such as equatorial electrojet (EEJ), the peak electon density of F2 layer (
) and total electron content (TEC) (e.g., Chau et al.,
2010; Goncharenko, Coster, et al.,
2010,
2010b; Mo et al.,
2021; Pedatella et al.,
2014; Pedatella & Forbes,
2010; Yamazaki et al.,
2012; Ye et al.,
2021). Further, the simulations of sophisticated models (Lin et al.,
2012; Pedatella et al.,
2012a,
2012b) also demonstrated that the SW2 also underwent amplification and played an important role in the ionospheric response to SSWs (Jin et al.,
2012; Pedatella & Liu,
2013).…”
