Sawtooth events are quasi-periodic, large-amplitude oscillations of energetic particle flux enhancement with a periodicity of 2-4 hours, which are observed globally and simultaneously at the geosynchronous orbit. Statistical studies of sawtooth events imply an enhanced solar wind - magnetosphere - ionosphere coupling. Herein the ionosphere convection potentials and currents systems are examined using the Assimilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics (AMIE) simulation results. Comparison of convection pattens for sawtooth events with isolated substorms, steady magnetosphere convection (SMC) events are also made.
