Type

FIELDWORK

Research/Observation Title

Observation of MF auroral radio emissions

Science Summary (common)

[purpose] Observations of MF auroral radio emissions in the auroral zone,polar cap and cusp regions [outline] Spectrum observation is in operation around the clock , and wave form measurement is performed 5-10 hours per day. We improve the instruments both in Svalbard and Iceland this August and September.
- Individual Project Information 1/4 Research/Observation Period 2007-04-01 〜 2008-03-31

Science Summary

[outline] The observation system has been operating and will observe continuously at least for the next few years in order to clarify the long-term variation of their occurrence. So, we plan to repair the system. In addition, we will examine the electromagnetic environment at Longyearbyen to start the new observation.

- Individual Project Information 2/4 Research/Observation Period 2008-04-01 〜 2009-03-31

Science Summary

[outline] The observation system in Iceland is operated continuously to observe MF auroral radio emissions. We will set up a new instrument in Svalbard in August and start a new observation to get spectrum and waveform data. In addition to the automatic observation, a manual observation will be conducted in November.
