global circuit

The structure and combination of processes set up by the conductive earth, the conductive ionosphere, and all agents of electrification within the resistive troposphere.

The so-called dc global circuit is characterized by the ionosphere potential and the ac global circuit refers to the Schumann resonances within the earth–ionosphere waveguide.
