High-latitude plasma convection during Northward IMF as derived from in-situ magnetospheric Cluster EDI measurements

Description : In this study, we investigate statistical, systematic variations of the high-latitude convection cell structure during northward IMF. Using 1-minute-averages of Cluster/EDI electron drift observations above the Northern and Southern polar cap areas for six and a half years (Feb 2001 till July 2007),...
