Observations of ionospheric flux ropes above South Pole

Numerical techniques have been used to investigate two different models of the current flow in ionospheric flux ropes, giving attention to the problem of mapping the electric field from the ionosphere down to balloon altitudes and to the isolated event that occurred at about 1625 UT on January 3, 19...
