Overlap of the plasmasphere and ring current: Relation to subauroral ionospheric heating
(2020-06-18)
The overlap of the ring current with the outer plasmasphere is thought to play a major role in storm-time related increases in the subauroral ambient topside electron temperature. Instabilities generated within the overlap ...
