The effects of an interplanetary shock on the high-latitude ionospheric convection during an IMF <I>B<sub>y</sub></I>-dominated period
On 6 January 1998 an interplanetary shock hit the magnetosphere around 14:15 UT and caused a reconfiguration of the northern high-latitude ionospheric convection. We use SuperDARN, spacecraft and ground magnetometer data to study such reconfiguration. We find that the shock front was tilted towar...
