Example of ring current-ionosphere coupling (overshielding). In b, the fan shape indicates the field of view of the SuperDARN Hokkaido radar, and the contour indicates the ionospheric electric potential. (After Ebihara et al. 2008b). a Simulated plasma pressure in the equatorial plane. b Simulated field-aligned current in the ionosphere and electric potential. c Observed IMF Bz d Observed line-of-sight velocity. e Simulated line-of-sight velocity
