Scientific paper
A fully self-consistent numerical model of the polar ionosphere and the global thermosphere is used to examine the effects of self-consistent enhancement of E- and F-region ionization and conductivity within the auroral ovals and polar regions, and the consequent response of the neutral circulation to geomagnetic forcing. The plasma densities of the auroral E-region are shown to be significantly enhanced even under quiet geomagnetic conditions. Rather unusual and large thermospheric wind and structural disturbance patterns are observed during highly disturbed geomagnetic conditions.
