A time-dependent, global, fluid model has been used to study the three-dimensional velocity structure of the polar wind for a variety of geophysical conditions. In particular, variations in the thermal plasma flow have been examined for a full range of solar-cycle, seasonal, and geomagnetic conditions. Regions of upflow and downflow have been charted for both the H+ and O+ components of the polar wind, including regions where these populations undergo counterstreaming. The theoretical results of this investigation have been compared with the findings of several relevant experimental studies.
