Abstract A review is provided of some of the major interactions in the magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere system, with emphasis on those internal interactions involving mutual coupling between neutral winds, plasma drifts, and the F2-layer peak height. Examples of parameterizations for interactions of this type at low, middle, and high latitudes, intended for use in numerical predictions, are presented. A new parameterization for hmF2 in terms of wind- and electric field-driven drifts at equatorial latitudes is given, and verifications of the accuracy of previously developed parameterizations at middle and high latitudes are provided.
