A precipitation index is described which quantifies the intensity and spatial extent of high-latide particle precipitation based on observations made along individual satellite passes. By sorting plasma convection data according to this index, average patterns of the ionospheric convection electric field have been derived from a data set consisting of five years, observations by the Millstone Hill radar. Reference to the instantaneous precipitation index, and the average patterns keyed to it, provides a means of characterizing the global precipitation and convection patterns throughout an event.
