Interplay of solar wind parameters and physical mechanisms producing the saturation of the cross polar cap potential
Abstract The nonlinear response of the cross polar cap potential (CPCP) to solar wind driving electric field is a well‐known phenomenon. The reasons behind this saturation, however, are still under debate. We have performed a statistical study of the coupling efficiency between the solar wind and th...
