Energetic neutral atom (ENA) stereo images are routinely obtained by the dual-spacecraft Two Wide-angle Imaging Neutral-atom Spectrometers (TWINS) mission. During the quiet to moderately disturbed geomagnetic conditions that have prevailed during 2008-2009, the ENA images have contained emissions from low altitudes, i.e., close to the limb of the Earth. Stereo imaging (observation from two widely-separated vantage points) is used to analyze the directional dependence of these low-altitude ENA emissions. With this directional dependence characterized, we determine the dependences of the occurrence and intensity of these emissions versus several key indicators of geomagnetic activity, including available solar wind data from the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) and various geomagnetic indices (Kp, Dst, AE, etc.).
