Scientific paper

Polar magnetic substorms associated with the westward traveling surge are examined in detail, using an extensive all-sky and magnetic networks in Canada-Alaska-Siberia. Since the surge is accompanied by an intense negative bay and since it advances into the polar cap along the auroral oval during the auroral substorm, the region in which a negative bay is observed expands along the path of the surge. Thus, as Akasofu, Chapman and Meng (1965) have recently suggested, the so-called westward electrojet extends into the polar cap, rather than being terminated in the midnight sector of the auroral zone.
