Validation of Simulated Statistical Characteristics of Magnetosphere‐Ionosphere Coupling in Global Geospace Simulations Over an Entire Carrington Rotation by Qianfeng Yin, Kevin H. Pham, Junjie Chen, Binzheng Zhang

“…The M‐I coupling characteristics, such as field‐aligned current, polar cap potential, ionospheric Joule heating, and downward Alfvénic Poynting flux, are binned according to the interplanetary magnetic field clock angles over an entire Carrington Rotation event between 20 March and 16 April 2008. The MAGE model simulates similar distributions of field‐aligned currents compared to empirical Weimer/AMPS models and Iridium observations and reproduces the Region 0 current system. …”
