Statistics of Joule heating in the auroral zone and polar cap using Astrid-2 satellite Poynting flux
We make a statistical study of ionospheric Joule heating with the Poynting flux method using six months of Astrid-2/EMMA electric and magnetic field data during 1999 (solar maximum year). For the background magnetic field we use the IGRF model. Our results are in agreement with earlier statistic...
