Description
We have examined the relationship between hourly values of solar wind density, speed and the interplanetary magnetic field and the densities of Region 1 Birklend current densities. Data acquired from 51 passes in the morning sector (0800 to 1300 MLT) during IMF b/sub y/>0 and 74 passes in the afternoon sector (1100 to 1600 MLT) during IMF b/sub y/<0 were used in this study. This separation of data by polarity of IMF b/sub y/ was done to avoid the compligated bipagb IP091482 MG100482
