Northern-Hemisphere afternoon/evening-sector observations of auroral absorption substorms on November 3, 1975, September 28, 1977, and February 14, 1976, obtained with the Finnish riometer chain, a large number of additional riometer stations, and seven pulsation-magnetometer stations are reported in tables and graphs and discussed. The events considered occurred during magnetically disturbed periods (Kp greater than 3), with substorm onset in the magnetic midnight sector. The main features observed are a southward-moving preonset absorption bay, rapid westward propagation (separately at high and low L) of the onset, and slowly varying absorption (without pulsation activity) at L = 3-4 about 1 h after onset; these features are characterized in detail. The westward propagation correlates with PiB or IPDP magnetic-pulsation activity at L greater than about 6 or less than 4.8, respectively.
