Observations of near-conjugate high latitude substorms and their low latitude implications
Geomagnetic substorms are triggered on the nightside of the earth's magnetosphere and the most dramatic effect is observed at the auroral latitudes (60°-70° magnetic). Magnetic field disturbances observed at a set of longitudinally distributed auroral stations are used to derive auroral electro...
