A comparative study of auroral morphology distribution between the Northern and Southern Hemisphere based on automatic classification
Aurora is a very important geophysical phenomenon in the high latitudes of Arctic and Antarctic regions, and it is important to make a comparative study of the auroral morphology between the two hemispheres. Based on the morphological characteristics of the four labeled dayside discrete auroral type...
