Solar cycle variations in equatorial ionospheric zonal electric fields near sunrise

In this study, we investigate the solar cycle dependence of the sunrise ionospheric zonal electric fields at the equator under geomagnetically quiet conditions. Simulations using the Thermosphere–Ionosphere–Electrodynamics General Circulation Model (TIEGCM) reveal that the equatorial eastward electr...
