Research/Observation Title

A conjunctive observation of polar cap aurora in Longyearbyen with EISCAT radar, satellites and groundbased optics

Science Summary (common)

This aims at observing high latitude auroras in a comprehensive way by the ground based optical instruments at the Aurora Station and the EISCAT Svalbard radar in Longyearbyen. An interesting feature was that these were operated in conjunction with FAST and GEOTAIL satellites and also in conjugate with an Antarctic station.
