Dual HF radar study of the subauroral polarization stream [PDF]
The dual HF radars comprising the Tasman International Geophysical Environment Radar (TIGER) system often observe localized high-velocity F-region plasma flows (≥1500 m/s) in the midnight sector (20:00–02:00 MLT) at magnetic latitudes as low as ...

Substorm‐Ring Current Coupling: A Comparison of Isolated and Compound Substorms [PDF]
AbstractSubstorms are a highly variable process, which can occur as an isolated event or as part of a sequence of multiple substorms (compound substorms). In this study we identify how the low‐energy population of the ring current and subsequent energization varies for isolated substorms compared to the first substorm of a compound event.

The high latitude convection response to an interval of substorm activity [PDF]
On 17 March 1991, five clear substorm onsets/intensifications took place within a three hour interval. During this interval ground-based data from the EISCAT incoherent scatter radar, a digital CCD all sky camera, and an extensive array of ...

Association of cusp energetic ions with geomagnetic storms and substorms [PDF]
Energetic ions observed in the cusp have been explained as a result of processes within the magnetosphere, but also proposed as a driver of some of those same processes. This study assesses potential connections between energetic ions observed in the

Prelude to THEMIS tail conjunction study [PDF]
A close conjunction of several satellites (LANL, GOES, Polar, Geotail, and Cluster) distributed from the geostationary altitude to about 16 RE downstream in the tail occurred during substorm activity as indicated by global auroral imaging and ground ...

Correlation between ground-based observations of substorm signatures and magnetotail dynamics [PDF]
We present a substorm event study using the four Cluster spacecraft in combination with ground-based instruments, in order to perform simultaneous observations in the ionosphere and magnetotail.

Energization of the Ring Current by Substorms. [PDF]
AbstractThe substorm process releases large amounts of energy into the magnetospheric system, although where the energy is transferred to and how it is partitioned remains an open question. In this study, we address whether the substorm process contributes a significant amount of energy to the ring current. The ring current is a highly variable region,

Transition from substorm growth to substorm expansion phase as observed with a radial configuration of ISTP and Cluster spacecraft [PDF]
International audienceTransition from the growth phase to the substorm expansion during a well-isolated substorm with a strong growth phase is investigated using a unique radial (THEMIS-like) spacecraft constellation near midnight, including the probing ...

Near-Earth substorm features from multiple satellite observations [PDF]
We investigate a substorm on 3 October 2004 during which 11 satellites were located in near-Earth magnetotail (XGSM > −10 RE). Double Star 1 (TC-1), Cluster, and LANL-97 satellites were closely aligned in the dawn-dusk direction (
