Investigation of Disturbance Magnetic Fields from Satellite Data Due to Magnetospheric/Ionospheric Currents and Waves

Abstract

Long-term goals include understanding the basic physics of magnetospheric and ionospheric currents and waves for the purpose of developing predictive models of magnetospheric dynamics. This requires characterizing the magnetic signatures of currents and waves detected by spaceborne magnetometers at low Earth orbit and higher altitudes.
