Scientific paper

An analysis is made of (1) nearly simultaneous sets of data obtained by a ground-based magnetometer, (2) magnetic perturbations recorded by the polar-orbiting Triad satellite at 800 km, (3) auroral imagery, and (4) studies made of precipitating electrons within the 200 eV to 20 keV range. The analysis is used to determine periods of moderate magnetospheric activity during which substorms occur. Results are presented with attention to morning sector, evening sector, premidnight substorm, and midnight sector features.
