Scientific paper

The basic equations governing the electrodynamics of the dynamo regions, in the ionosphere, are reviewed. The Harang discontinuity in the premidnight auroral zone is discussed. The conclusion is that this is a dynamic region which requires further combined ground and in situ observations. Special attention is given to the large and small scale dynamics of the dayside cusp/cleft aurora. Their relations to the interplanetary magnetic field, particle precipitations, ionospheric electric fields and Birkeland currents, are considered. The advantage of continuous ground based observations is pointed out. The need for further coordinated ground, balloon and rocket measurements poleward of 70 degrees invariant latitudes is stressed.
