At high-latitudes, the strong field-aligned ionospheric currents are closed at approximately 100 - 130 km altitude due to the maxima of Pedersen and Hall conductivity. Atmosphere-ionosphere coupling processes at these altitudes can therefore have a significant impact on the ionospheric variability....
