(bottom) Equatorial electrojet obtained as a difference between the geomagnetic storms at OKI and YAP, which is composed of the EEJ and CEJ during the main and recovery phases, respectively. (top) The auroral electrojets shown with the contours of current intensity develop at midlatitude below 60° corrected geomagnetic latitude (CGM) during the main phase, while they shift to the auroral latitude (60–70° CGM) during the recovery phase (from Fig. 8 of Kikuchi et al. 2008)
