The distribution of stably trapped plasma is determined as a function of equatorial geocentric distance, R. Observed Pi2 micropulsation periods and the magnitudes of their associated magnetic bays, measured by the auroral electrojet index, AE, are used in determining this distribution. Plasma density is found to vary inversely as approximately the sixth power of R. When Pi2 period-AE relations are studied for varying time lags, the pulsation periods are found to define prolonged intervals of abnormal AE levels. Thus the periods may be potentially useful in forecasting geomagnetic disturbances or abnormally quiet intervals. A qualitative physical model is proposed to explain the observational relations.
