Scientific paper

Computer simulation of atmospheric processes occurring at heights of 60-160 km is used to investigate the effect of external electric fields on the distribution of oxygen concentration in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere. Quiet and moderately disturbed geomagnetic conditions (for which the electric field does not exceed 20-30 mV/m) are considered. It is shown that magnetospheric convection electric fields lead to considerable variations in neutral component concentrations at these heights: diurnal variations increase and altitude and latitude variations change, especially at high latitudes.
