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

摘要9613683 Arnoldy本项目操作和分析位于北极和南极高地磁纬度的感应线圈磁强计阵列的数据。 这些地点是格陵兰岛的Sondre Stromfjord和加拿大西北部的伊卡卢伊特，位于北极和南极，以及南极的麦克默多。 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阵列中的类似磁力计。 在这些高地磁纬度测量磁脉动，是用来研究磁层某些重要边界的等离子体物理学，特别是太阳风进入磁层的区域周围的边界，以及磁层以极光和类似现象的形式将太阳风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共同支持。

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.
