An electric circuit model of the Earth’s polar electrojets and field-aligned currents for the estimation of magnetospheric magnetic field from along-track Swarm magnetic data

Abstract This study deals with the analysis of Swarm vector magnetic data in order to create a circuit model of electric currents flowing in the Earth’s polar ionosphere and the inner magnetosphere. The model is composed of a system of two-dimensional electric currents representing the magnetic fiel...
