Magnetoconjugate phenomena in Alaska and Macquarie Is., Australia in 2003: position of the global maximum iso-aurorae
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract. An extensive magnetometer network in Alaska and Canada (consisting of 6 auroral and sub-auroral stations) and at Macquarie Is. (Australia) was used to study magnetoconjugate phenomena in 2003, using the H-component magnetograms. Altogether 193 magnetically disturbed days (with ΣKp≥10) were used in the analysis. The maximum negative swing in the H-component (ΔH) was assigned for each day from the auroral conjugate station's data. Two types of magnetoconjugate data were found: Type-1 when the daily (00:00–24:00 h UT) substorm activity was faithfully reproduced in the H-component variations in the northern and southern auroral zones, and Type-2 when a major peak in disturbance was largely missing in one conjugate location. A distinct maximum in the occurrence of the Type-1 events was in the southern summer (northern winter), reaching almost 70 per cent of cases. A minimum in this type of events was in the southern autumn and winter (around 40%). The correlation between ΣKp and ΔH for auroral stations faithfully reproduced the percentage occurrence of the Type-1 events for various seasons, with the maximum correlation coefficient r≈0.8 in summer. The time conjugacy of the events (i.e. the events occurring with a small time displacement in the southern and northern auroral zones) was highest for the auroral stations located close to the theoretical conjugate point location at L-value ≈ 5 (i.e. College and Macquarie Is.). The substorm onsets started earlier at the stations positioned east of the conjugate point of Macquarie Is. in spring and winter, indicating a westward drift of auroral disturbance with velocities of 1.4–1.6 km/s. The magnitude of average ΔH increased rapidly past the invariant latitude of Macquarie Is. towards the latitude of its nearest northern conjugate station College , particularly in spring. The average level of disturbance was consistently lower by about 30% at Macquarie Is. than at College. Since Macquarie Is. is the only available auroral station in the southern auroral zone the maximum southern auroral activity level (maximum iso-aurorae) should be inferred from magnetic data obtained at a northern conjugate station positioned at a slightly higher L-value, such as College (L-value = 5.73). It is concluded from the above considerations that the maximum iso-aurorae is located at a shell with L-value ≥ 5.73 in both hemispheres.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
