Drift trajectories (convection lines) of a stationary electric field model are calculated for large-scale ionospheric plasma enhancements selected from about 1000 polar passes of the Oreol-3 satellite. A comparison of the results with simultaneous measurements of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) indicates that the plasma enhancements were formed in the region of the daytime polar cusp or near it during abrupt variations of the IMF. It is suggested that plasma enhancements may result from the nonadiabatic compression of the ionospheric plasma at the boundary between the opposite plasma drift velocities.
