The Saharan heat low and moisture transport pathways in the central Sahara—Multiaircraft observations and Africa‐LAM evaluation by Engelstaedter, S, Washington, R, Flamant, C, Parker, D, Allen, C, Todd, M

“…The SHL core is associated with a 950 hPa temperature minimum (36.4°C) in the morning caused by the monsoon surge and a maximum (42.6°C) in the afternoon. The monsoon surge east of the SHL core splits into two transport pathways: (a) curving around the SHL core in the north, especially pronounced in a morning near‐surface layer, and (b) northeastward transport within the ~2 km deep monsoon surge (afternoon observations only). …”

Geosynchronous Magnetic Field Response to Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure by Jong-Sun Park, Khan-Hyuk Kim, Dong-Hun Lee, Ensang Lee, Ho Jin

“…During geomagnetically quiet time (Kp < 3), we observed that a peak of the magnetic field strength is skewed toward the earlier local times (11:07~11:37 MLT) with respect to local noon and that the geosynchronous field strength is larger in the morning sector than in the afternoon sector. That is, there is the morning-afternoon asymmetry of the geosynchronous magnetic field strength. …”
