Plasma transport along discrete auroral arcs and its contribution to the ionospheric plasma convection
The role of intense high-altitude electric field (E-field) peaks for large-scale plasma convection is investigated with the help of Cluster E-field, B-field and density data. The study covers 32 E-field events between 4 and 7 <I>R<sub>E</sub></I> geocentric distance, with E...
