| Summary: | P(論文) The historical development of our knowledge of the geographical distribution of auroras in the Antarctic is reviewed. The results for the IGY and later years as given by DAVIS, GARTLEIN, FELDSTEIN, and others are summarized. Data on azimuth of auroral arcs at various hours of the day are presented. The equatorward expansion and broadening of the auroral belt with world-wide features of magnetic storms are noted. Specific instances of auroral belt positions during very great and very weak magnetic disturbances are noted. This belt appears interlinked with the corresponding belt in the Arctic. The spatial relationships to geomagnetic and other geophysical phenomena are summarized. departmental bulletin paper |
