Scientific paper

The daily variations in ionospheric drift velocities are examined from incoherent scatter measurements at Millstone Hill. The data with summed Kp greater than 24 behave differently from those with low magnetic activity and basically follow the convection pattern but have large day-to-day variations. The influence of the magnetic conjugate point is discussed, and solar cycle variations are examined in conjunction with geomagnetic variations. Ionospheric currents calculated by using a semidiurnal neutral wind model are in good agreement with ground-based magnetograms for low magnetic activity, but the E region neutral wind model appears to be applicable only to this case.
