In the present investigation, observations of charged particle precipitation conducted near Frobisher Bay with the aid of the NOAA-7 and -8 satellites are compared with simultaneous photographs of auroras made by an image-intensified, all-sky camera located at the South Pole Station (the nominal magnetic conjugate point). It is found that auroral phenomena have a high degree of correlation between the two locations. The results demonstrate the expected poleward migration of the location of the auroras within each individual hemisphere during the midday hours. It is pointed out that it would be very useful to do a comparable analysis for the northern winter season to see if the daily behavior of the north vs south auroral migration is inverted.
