| Zusammenfassung |
| Dawn–dusk asymmetries are ubiquitous features of the coupled solar-wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere system. During the last decades, increasing
availability of satellite and ground-based measurements has made it possible
to study these phenomena in more detail. Numerous publications have
documented the existence of persistent asymmetries in processes, properties
and topology of plasma structures in various regions of geospace. In this
paper, we present a review of our present knowledge of some of the most
pronounced dawn–dusk asymmetries. We focus on four key aspects: (1) the role
of external influences such as the solar wind and its interaction with the
Earth's magnetosphere; (2) properties of the magnetosphere itself; (3) the
role of the ionosphere and (4) feedback and coupling between regions. We have
also identified potential inconsistencies and gaps in our understanding of
dawn–dusk asymmetries in the Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere. |
