Depending on the variable IMF orientation and the Earth's dipole tilt, the global high-latitude ionospheric convection patterns can be symmetric or asymmetric between the two polar regions. Also, the difference in offset of the geomagnetic poles results in very different ionospheric conductivity regimes in the two polar caps. Studies of the behavior of high latitude phenomena can provide a new insight in interhemispheric associations and what implications they have for the mechanisms of geospace coupling, including those phenomena in both the Northern and Southern polar caps and auroral regions.
Contributions are welcome from experimenters and theoreticians.
Depending on the number of contributed papers, a poster session may be planned as well.
