An Investigation of Magnetospheric Boundaries Using Ground- Based Induction Magnetometers Operated at Manned Stations as Part of an Extensive Ground Array

本项目对位于北极和南极高纬度地区的感应线圈磁力计阵列的数据进行了操作和分析。这两个地点分别是加拿大西北地区北极和南极的格陵兰岛和伊克卢特岛的桑德雷·斯特罗姆峡湾和南极的麦克默多。它们还补充了美国和英国自动地球物理观测站（AGO）网络和加拿大MACCS阵列的类似磁力计。在这些高地磁纬度的磁脉动测量被用来研究磁层一些重要边界的等离子体物理，特别是那些围绕太阳风进入磁层的区域，以及磁层以极光和类似现象的形式将太阳风的能量转移到地球大气层的区域。该项目由美国北极和南极计划联合支持。

Abstract 9613683 Arnoldy This project operates and analyzes the data from an array of induction coil magnetometers located at high geomagnetic latitudes in the Arctic and Antarctic. The Sites are Sondre Stromfjord, Greenland and Iqaluit, NWT, Canada in the Arctic and South Pole and McMurdo in the Antarctic. They also complement similar magnetometers in the US and British Automatic Geophysical Observatory (AGO) networks and the MACCS array in Canada. The measurements of magnetic pulsations at these high geomagnetic latitudes are used to study the plasma physics of some the important boundaries of the magnetosphere, particularly those surrounding the area through which the solar wind enters the magnetosphere and where the magnetosphere transfers the solar wind's energy to the Earth's atmosphere in the form of aurora and similar phenomena. This project is jointly supported by the US Arctic and Antarctic Programs.
