Scientific paper
The considered investigation takes into account wind measurements conducted with the aid of 39 sounding rocket chemical release payloads. Attention is given to the geomagnetic dependence, winds and ion convection patterns, subauroral dayside measurements, evening auroral belt measurements, evening polar cap measurements, postmidnight polar cap measurements, midnight and early morning auroral belt measurements, late evening auroral belt measurements, and anomalous winds. The prevailing theme in presenting and interpreting the wind measurements between 160 and 320 km has been that the gross characteristics of the high-latitude wind system can be readily understood in terms of the pattern distribution of electric fields when the inertial properties of the neutral atmosphere and Coriolis forces are taken into account.
