Scientific paper

The pattern of large-scale motions at a height of about 900 km, including a two-tier picture of magnetospheric convection, is determined on the basis of plasma-velocity measurements made with the ID-1 instrument on Intercosmos-Bolgaria-1300. The high time and space resolution of the instrument made it possible to detect small-scale structures (1-10 km) in which the plasma attains a velocity of 4.5 km/s. Simultaneous measurements of density with the same instrument indicate the appearance of local troughs accompanying 'jumps' of ion drift velocity.
