OGO-6在磁午夜前的F区观测到强烈的极向电场，靠近哈朗不连续面，纬度小于60°不变。这些结果支持了Smiddy等人（1977）最近的测量结果。这两组数据是一致的压缩等势在低纬度边缘的午夜前对流单体，造成的障碍，亚风暴相关的西南扩张的对流模式。
Intense poleward-directed electric fields were observed by OGO-6 in the pre-magnetic midnight F-region, close to the Harang discontinuity and at latitudes of less than 60° invariant. These results support the recent measurements of Smiddy et al. (1977). Both sets of data are consistent with a compression of equipotentials on the low latitude edge of the pre-midnight convection cell, caused by an impediment of the sub-storm-related southwestward expansion of the convection pattern.
