From: Thermospheric wind response to a sudden ionospheric variation in the trough: event at a pseudo-breakup during geomagnetically quiet conditions

Fig. 7

Swarm A measurements of the a electron density and temperature (same as Fig. 4a), b field-aligned current (FAC; positive downward; same as Fig. 4b) and c ion velocity (positive eastward; same as Fig. 4b). d Poynting flux derived from Swarm A measurements of the ion velocity and magnetic field (positive downward) with error values of ± 3σ. Calculations were made applying the along-track ion velocity from the horizontal (H; red) and vertical (V; blue) sensors, filtered by a 3-point moving average. The horizontal axes of all the panels were shifted in the same way as in Fig. 4
