Fig. 11

A schematic illustration on the relation among volcanic eruption, its geomagnetic conjugate point, field-aligned current generation, electric field mapping, ionospheric current (Hall current), its magnetic effect on the ground. In this figure, the symbol ‘V’ indicates the neutral atmospheric velocity in the ionospheric dynamo layer (mainly E-layer) caused by the eruption, Ep denotes polarized electric field, and V × B indicate the Lorentz electric field
