Solar-terrestrial relations: Magnetic turbulence in the earth's magnetosphere and geomagnetic activity

Abstract:

Recent spacecraft observations of magnetic turbulence in the ion foreshock, in the magnetosheath, in the polar cusp regions, and in the magnetotail will be reviewed. Turbulence features like the fluctuation level, the spectral power law index, the turbulence anisotropy and intermittency, and the turbulence driver will be addressed. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2008.
