What can we tell about global auroral-electrojet activity from a single meridional magnetometer chain?

The <i>AE</i> indices are generally used for monitoring the level of magnetic activity in the auroral oval region. In some cases, however, the oval is either so expanded or contracted that the latitudinal coverage of the <i>AE</i> magnetometer chain is not adequate. Then,...
