Electric field variability has been shown to be an important component of the energy budget at high latitudes for the thermosphere and ionosphere. Codrescu et al. [2000] showed that energy input at high latitudes could be increased by roughly a factor of two when the variability of the electric field is included in the calculation of joule heating. We summarize the spatial and temporal sources of electric field variability and investigate the effect different magnetospheric forcing has on this variability. We compare the electric field variability found from direct measurements such as radar or satellite data bases with that found from assimilative mapping techniques and present average patterns binned by IMF orientation suitable for inclusion into theoretical models.
