Scientific paper

It is shown that the intensification of electric field dominated auroral electrojets in the morning and evening sectors of the auroral oval can be understood in a self-consistent fluid model as the ionospheric response to enhanced magnetospheric plasma convection. Starting from a self-consistently calculated equilibrium characterized by current-closure in the partially ionized ionosphere we perform fluid simulations to study the dynamics of the ionospheric current system in response to enhanced magnetospheric convection.
