Short summary
The different electric current systems flowing in the near-Earth nightside magnetosphere each have a unique contribution to the magnetic and electric field distortion of geospace. This study quantifies the intensity and timing of five current systems as calculated from 90 storm events using an inner magnetospheric drift physics model. There is a systematic progression through the various current systems, leading to implications for nonlinear feedback on the geospace system.
