Substorm associated radar auroral surges: a statistical study and possible generation model

Substorm-associated radar auroral surges (SARAS) are a short lived (15–90 minutes) and spatially localised (~5° of latitude) perturbation of the plasma convection pattern observed within the auroral E-region. The understanding of such phenomena has important ramifications for the investigation o...
