Short summary
Electromotive force plays a central role in the dynamo mechanism amplifying the magnetic field in turbulent plasmas and electrically conducting fluids. An algorithm is developed to measure the electromotive force using spacecraft data, and it is applied to a magnetic cloud event in interplanetary space. The electromotive force is enhanced when the magnetic cloud passes by the spacecraft, indicating local amplification of the magnetic field.
