Scientific paper

The equatorial electrojet is studied using a conductivity model with electron collision frequencies consistent with laboratory results. Electric fields and currents are calculated by an equivalent circuit method, and the results are compared with observations. Results are obtained for the electrojet height profile, the height and latitude of the cross-section profile, the height-integrated current density, the internal currents contribution, the scaling problem, the horizontal and vertical magnetic variation with latitude, and the effects of local winds in the F region.
