“…Large-scale current systems in the ionosphere and the magnetosphere are intimately controlled by the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction and the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling. During space weather events, these currents reconfigure and intensify significantly in response to enhanced solar wind-magnetosphere interaction, facilitating explosive energy input from the magnetosphere into the ionosphere-thermosphere system and inducing electric current surges in electric power systems on the ground. …”
