Influences of various space current systems on the geomagnetic field in near-Earth space

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics, 2023
Ground and space-based observations of the geomagnetic field are usually a superposition of different sources from the Earth’s core, lithosphere, ocean, ionosphere, and magnetosphere, and also from field-aligned currents coupling the ionosphere and ...
