Scientific paper
The Aberystwyth tomographic imaging experiment and the Sheffield Coupled Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Plasmasphere model (SCTIP) have been used to investigate the dayside ionospheric trough at high latitude under different geomagnetic conditions. Previous work has suggested that the latitude of the trough minimum and the structure of the poleward wall is dependent on the electron precipitation, whereas the formation of the trough itself is dependent on the convection of flux tubes. We further discuss the roles of flux tube convection and the nightside stagnation region in the formation of both the dayside and nightside troughs, and the role of partially depleted flux tubes in the observed equatorward structuring of the trough region.
