Comparison of eight years magnetic field data from Cluster with Tsyganenko models in the inner magnetosphere

Eight years of magnetic field data, taken while the four Cluster spacecraft pass through, or adjacent to, the equatorial ring current, have been surveyed to investigate the effects on the Earth's magnetic field of the externally driven current systems connecting the ionosphere, cusp and ring...
