AbstractThe atmospheric pressure is the main parameter measured for ordinary weather prediction. Plasma pressure is the main parameter determining the equilibrium of the magnetosphere, structure of the transverse and field- aligned currents. Transverse currents determine the value of Dst-variation. Field-aligned currents determine the large-scale ionospheric electric fields and plasma transport. So the obtaining of magnetospheric plasma pressure distribution can be one of the main step in the solution of space weather problem. INTERBALL/Tail observations are used for determination of plasma pressure distribution with rather high accuracy.
