Simulated vertical electric field data: An estimation from an improved coupling model for the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere system

摘要

Researches in the field of the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere (LAI) coupling involve discussions on the physical mechanisms that might be responsible for that coupling. Hypotheses that are based on an electromagnetic physical mechanism of seismo-ionosphere disturbances generation trigger discussions on the required electric fields. Kuo and Lee [doi: 10.1002/2016JA023441] proposed and discussed an improved coupling model for the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere system but did not provide any electric fields values (Ez tables, figures or datasets). In this paper we fill this shortage and present corresponding numerical estimations (dataset) of the required vertical electric fields values Ez. Our dataset is valuable for comparison of the LAI-models with the electric fields observations and to contrast different LAI-coupling models with each other.
