Plasma Density Enhancements in the Polar Cap Regions in Both Hemispheres Observed by DMSP Satellites

Plasma density enhancements in the polar region are localized ionospheric structures with densities exceeding the background level, influenced by season, Universal time (UT), longitude, interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), and the offset between the geographic and magnetic poles. In this study, we u...
