[PEM28-P05] Ionospheric currents induced by Dst field and their effects on the geomagnetic field variation

*Masahiko TAKEDA1 (1.Data Analysis Center for Geomagnetism and Space Magnetism., Kyoto Univ.)

Keywords:Dst field, induced ionospheric currents, geomagnetic field variation

Ionospheric currents induced by Dst field were simulated, and their effects on the geomagnetic field variation was estimate. It was found that a vortex current system is induced in the dayside ionosphere for the variation of less than 10 minutes because of the lower nighttime conductivity, and causes geomagnetic field variation in the Y-component.
