Excitation of twin-vortex flow in the nightside high-latitude ionosphere during an isolated substorm

We present SuperDARN radar observations of the ionospheric flow during a well-observed high-latitude substorm which occurred during steady northward IMF conditions on 2 December 1999. These data clearly demonstrate the excitation of large-scale flow associated with the substorm expansion pha...
