Abstract: Based on ray tracing in a smooth ionosphere described by the IRI-2012 model we have inferred the seasonal-diurnal dynamics of radio noise observed by four mid-latitude high-frequency (HF) radars. In the calculations, noise is assumed to be homogeneous and stationary, but the main contribution comes from the radar skip zone boundary due to focusing radiowaves effect. Noise absorption along the ray path is simulated from the IRI-2012 electron density, and from the molecular nitrogen density and electron temperatures obtained from the NRLMSISE-00 model. Earth magnetic field is not taken into account both in the absorption and ray-tracing calculations due to insufficient accuracy of the ionospheric model. The model results are compared with experimental radar data, and good agreement between the two is demonstrated. It is shown that experimentally observed seasonal and diurnal dynamics of the noise correlates well with model predictions. We demonstrated saturation effect at low noise levels. The model makes it possible to estimate the amount of absorption in D- and E-layers using noise observations at SuperDARN and SuperDARN-like poleward-oriented radars, especially at mid-latitudes. This is important for the retrieval of long term variations in the electron density in the lower ionosphere, by using wide coverage provided by these radars' network. The model also makes it feasible to interpret vertical absorption by experimental noise observations, thereby significantly expanding the capability of HF radars to monitor the lower ionosphere, and to provide data for joint analysis with other data, obtained by these radars at E- and F-layer heights.

. (2013). Origin of the central magnetic anomaly at the Haughton impact structure, Canada
. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 367, 116–122.
Abstract: The 23 km-diameter well-preserved Haughton impact structure shows a rather unique combination of a positive magnetic anomaly with a negative gravity anomaly over the center of its central uplift. Using a new ground magnetic dataset and several modeling approaches, we investigate the properties and geometry of its central magnetized source. Our results confirm that a km-sized magnetic body with a narrow near-surface extension is necessary to account for the anomaly. Additional measurements of rock magnetic properties of samples of all lithologies encountered in and outside the crater show that the target sedimentary rocks and the vast majority of the Precambrian basement rocks cannot be the source of the magnetic anomaly. While in larger impact structures such magnetic anomalies are often explained by magmatic mafic intrusions or highly magnetic glass lenses in the impact melt rocks, we propose that impact-generated hydrothermal activity enhanced the magnetization of the highly-porous unmelted uplifted basement rocks. Such a process may be considered for the interpretation of the geophysical signature of planetary impact craters.

Thiebot Jb, Pinaud D, . (2010). Quantitative method to estimate species habitat use from light-based geolocation data
. Endangered Species Research, 10, 341–353.
Abstract: The development of biologging techniques has been instrumental in studying the behaviour of wild animals and interpreting it with respect to the bio-physical features of their habi- tat. Light-based geolocation currently appears to be the only technique suitable for the study of far- ranging small species, particularly marine species, over long periods, but it provides locations with low precision. In this study, we sought to improve the exploitation of these data. Specifically, the goals were to (1) correct rather than reject estimates, especially during equinox periods, (2) perform repro- ducible time-saving routine analyses, and (3) determine the spatial likelihood of the estimations to adapt inferences on habitat use by the population. We therefore applied an existing data-processing method based on spatial template fitting, using Markov Chain Monte Carlo and state-space model- ling (Kalman filter) improved by a facultative sea surface temperature-matching procedure and a land mask. The main functions used for geolocation are grouped under the R package TripEstima- tion, freely available online. We focused on a typical example of animal movement that at present can only be ethically obtained from light-based geolocation. The method made it possible to estimate realistic positions during equinox periods and to routinely process the 12 available datasets. We thus obtained the most probable location for each sunrise/sunset as well as the posterior distribution around each estimated location, allowing an intuitive habitat use investigation at a scale of 100 km. This paper describes the method used and provides the complete and comprehensively annotated commands required for its use.
