An autonomous adaptive low-power instrument platform (AAL-PIP) for remote high-latitude geospace data collection
We present the development considerations and design for ground-based instrumentation that is being deployed on the East Antarctic Plateau along a 40° magnetic meridian chain to investigate interhemispheric magnetically conjugate geomagnetic coupling and other space-weather-related phenomena. The st...
