Fig. 5.
The ion outflow characteristics as function of time for O+, O2+, CO2+ and N2+ (blue, green, red, and yellow lines respectively). The six upper panels are from simulation run using Wind A and the six lower panels are from Wind B and all outflows are derived above a fixed altitude. The six pairs of panels represent, (a and g) outflow of all particles, (b and h) out flowing particle above escape velocity, (c and i) the ratio between the ion production and loss within the simulation domain from photo-chemical reactions only, (d and j) the relative outflow of all particles normalized to O+, (e and k) the relative out flowing particles above escape velocity normalized to O+, and (f and l) the fraction of out flowing particles that has velocities above escaping velocity. All quantities are presented on log-scale except in panels f and l where linear scale is used.
