(a, b) Vertically integrated electrical currents in the ﹩\mathrm{Wh}\,^{+}_{\mathrm{pp}\,}﹩ preflare (left) and postflare (right) model fields, on the same color scale. (c, d) Same as (a, b), but showing the horizontal currents integrated over the lowest 6100 km (12 pixels), using the same gray scale. (e, f) Same as (c, d), but for ﹩j_{z}﹩, with white and black for positive and negative ﹩j_{z}﹩, respectively.
