Scientific paper

Two types of prolonged auroral zone magnetic bay activity are studied. The first manifests frequent substorm expansions and the second (a convection bay) shows weak and infrequent substorm onset signatures during intense auroral zone bays. Data are obtained by multiple satellite recordings during a 5-hour interval of persistent auroral zone activity. The results are discussed in terms of: magnetic activity on the ground, solar wind and tail lobe conditions, onset and recovery of the 1122 UT substorm, plasma sheet variations during the convection bay, reappearance of substorm signatures in the tail of about 1613 UT, and magnetic field observations at synchronous orbit.
