Scientific paper

We use mass-resolved ion outflow observations from the Akebono, Polar, and FAST satellites obtained during a four day interval to assess the temporal and spatial coherence of ionospheric outflow. We find no relationship between locally measured ion outflow and a global monitor of energy exchanged between the ionosphere and magnetosphere. We infer that ion outflow, like electron precipitation, is filamentary in nature. We discuss the implications of this result on models of the magnetosphere that include transport of ions from the ionosphere through the various regions of the magnetosphere.
