Scientific paper

Flux variations of high-energy (E greater than 16 keV) electrons measured by the energetic-particle spectrometer onboard the geosynchronous satellite GEOS 2 have been compared to simultaneously observed electron-density structures in the lower ionosphere measured with the incoherent-scatter facility EISCAT. The very localized E-region electron-density enhancements caused by the precipitation allow a preliminary estimate of the location of the footpoint of the magnetic field line through GEOS 2. Various other results of the intercomparison are discussed.
