Abstract
In the foregoing chapter, we made simple estimates of electric fields and currents within the magnetosphere. We quantify in this chapter the global electric field and current configuration within the inner magnetosphere (r < 15a) and its magnetic manifestation on the ground [see also Gurevich et al. (1976) and Pudovkin (1974)].
