Summary: | This report results from a contract tasking University of Oslo as follows: The contractor will merge the capabilities of the Svalbard EISCAT Incoherent Scatter Radar and the polar network of optical imagers and radio beacon receivers to define the polar and noon auroral processes that are directly and indirectly driven by the interplanetary magnetic field. The goal of this research is to assess the ability to move from observation of present conditions to a degree of prediction of future conditions. --Original contains color plates: All DTIC reproductions will be in black and white. |
