摘要

Ionospheric convection is occasionally observed to be substantially enhanced evenwhen the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is not strongly southward and the IMF By isnot large. Such enhanced convection flows tend to exhibit large oscillations with-40-30 min periodicity. We have considered the solar wind characteristics that leadto these oscillatory convection enhancements. We have used an extensive set ofSondrestrom radar observations of ionospheric convection within the dayside polar cap.We find that IMF ULF power is closely associated with the strength of daysideconvection. Convection flows during periods of large north–south IMF fluctuations areobserved to be as strong as for steady and large southward IMF periods. Enhancedconvection is also observed during northward IMF intervals when the interplanetarymagnetic field exhibits high ULF power. We find that ULF power enhances the convectionstrength, independent of an observed direct effect from the solar wind speed. Theseobservations thus suggest that IMF ULF fluctuations can significantly influenceionospheric convection. Therefore, in addition to the well-established contributions fromthe direction and magnitude of the IMF and the solar wind dynamic pressure, ULFfluctuations may also be an important contributor to coupling of the solar wind to themagnetosphere-ionosphere system. We speculate that resonance between IMF fluctuationsand natural magnetospheric oscillation frequencies or magnetopause boundary oscillationsmight be responsible for the connection between ionospheric convection and IMF ULFpower. We have also found evidence for a connection between the ULF power in the solarwind dynamic pressure and the strength of convection.
