Fig. 9

From: Global distribution of magnetic ripples and electron density fluctuations as observed by the Swarm satellites on the dayside and their relation to the rainfall estimated by the GSMaP

Fig. 9

Longitudinally averaged amplitude of each component in a heavy rain cases (> 5 mm/h), and b in weak rain (< 5 mm/h). The GSMaP data at the footprints traced to 120 km altitude, i.e., P1 and P2 in Fig. 1, are used. The blank area within ± 10゜appears because the geomagnetic lines of force cannot reach satellite altitudes in this area
