| Description | Electric and magnetic field disturbance characteristics from OGO-6 were studied. Examination of simultaneous patterns of disturbance below 600 km over the summer polar cap showed that pattern changes in electric field and in the disturbance in magnetic field magnitude are highly correlated. This correlation extends to pattern shapes boundary locations, and to the amplitudes of the correlated quantities. In the winter hemisphere, at altitudes above 800 km, correlations between boundaries exist, pattern correlations are present, and amplitude correlations are essentially absent. Below 600 km the region of positive delta B, from 2200 to 1000 MLT, has a significant contribution from ionospheric and nonionospheric sources. Above 800 km the nonionospheric sources dominate. |
