Scientific paper

Since April 1982, a new radar auroral backscatter system called SABRE (Sweden and Britain Radar auroral Experiment) has been in operation in northern Europe, allowing estimates to be made of plasma convection in the auroral E region over a large area with high spatial and temporal resolution. The flow patterns averaged over this period of radar operation for different levels of magnetic activity are presented. They reveal a definite rotation of the whole convection pattern towards earlier local times with increasing activity.
