Comparison of the characteristic energy of precipitating electrons derived from ground-based and DMSP satellite data
Energy maps are important for ionosphere-magnetosphere coupling studies, because quantitative determination of field-aligned currents requires knowledge of the conductances and their spatial gradients. By combining imaging riometer absorption and all-sky auroral optical data it is possible to pr...
