MAGNETOMETERGRID |
Flag indicating the use of the SWMF model's calculation of ground magnetic perturbations on a grid of positions. |
Magnetic perturbations on the ground are calculated using Biot-Savart summation over electric currents on the magnetosphere and ionosphere electrodynamics grids. magnetic-field=aligned currents between ionosphere electrodynamics and magnetosphere are assumed to flow on dipole magnetic field lines. The calculation assumes stationary conditions (infinite speed of light) and does not take into account induction effects due to the Earth's electric ground conductivity. |
