7 How to estimate drift from Mags. measurements? Magnetometer at off the equator BObs = Bmain+BSQ+BFAC+BRC+BMP Magnetometer at the equator BObs = Bmain+BSQ+BFAC+BRC+BEJ+BMP EEJ, which is generated by Hall and Pederson conductivities at the vicinity of geomagnetic equator (±3 ), is proportional to vertical

16 GIC currents at the Equator
17 Recent investigations of GIC currents at the equator The arrival of interplanetary shocks from the Sun drives strong current systems, which then can destroy our power plants. This kind of impacts are obvious and stronger in high latitude regions. Recently, we demonstrated that such impacts are also stronger in the equatorial regions. Carter & Yizengaw, et al, GRL, 2015

19 Summary with lots of open questions! The magnitude and direction of the vertical drift (both dayside and evening sector) show significant longitudinal differences, stronger in the American and Asian than African sectors, what cause this longitudinal differences? Both ground- and space-based observations show clear longitudinal and seasonal variability of bubbles/irregularities structures, stronger in the African sector, which is opposite to the vertical drift longitudinal variability trend. If not the drift that cause the longitudinal bubbles distribution difference, then what could it be? Would it be the neutral winds that cause the long lasting bubbles in Africa? If it is the neutral wind, why the orientation and magnitude of the wind in the African sector is unique compared to other longitudes? Does the GIC current be a concern for nations in the vicinity of the geomagnetic equator? AMBER magnetometer network will be instrumental in estimating the GIC at the equator in different longitudes.

21 Equatorial Electrojet (EEJ) formation 120 km 100 km ºN 3.0ºN The solar-driven neutral wind results Sq current system and then east-west polarization E-field in the E-region. At the magnetic dip equator, the resulting upward E x B drift moves negative charge at the top and a positive at the bottom of the E-region. The resulting E-field prevents electrons to be drifted further upward, instead, they are propelled westward by the eastward E-field. This forms an eastward electric current flow within ±3.0º of the magnetic equator, which is called the Equatorial Electrojet (EEJ)
