Relationship of upflowing ion beams and conics around the dayside cusp/cleft region to the interplanetary conditions

The dayside cusp/cleft region is known as a major source of upflowing ionospheric ions to the magnetosphere. Since the ions are supposed to be energized by an input of energy from the dayside magnetospheric boundary region, we examined the possible influence of the interplanetary conditions...
