The polar orbiting magnetically stabilized satellite AZUR measured transverse magnetic variations in auroral and polar latitudes by means of a two component flux-gate magnetometer. Simultaneous measurements of λ2972 Å and λ3914 Å auroral emissions are related to low-energy zero-pitch-angle electron fluxes, which cause the transverse magnetic disturbances. Power spectra of the magnetic field variations are consistent with those of geomagnetic micropulsations. The sources of the field-aligned currents can be located in the Alfvén layer and in the magnetotail.
