Day‐night coupling by a localized flow channel visualized by polar cap patch propagation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present unique coordinated observations of the dayside auroral oval, polar cap, and nightside auroral oval by three all-sky imagers, two Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) radars, and Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP)-17. This data set revealed that a dayside poleward moving auroral form (PMAF) evolved into a polar cap airglow patch that propagated across the polar cap and then nightside poleward boundary intensifications (PBIs). SuperDARN observations detected fast antisunward flows associated with the PMAF, and the DMSP satellite, whose conjunction occurred within a few minutes after the PMAF initiation, measured enhanced low-latitude boundary layer precipitation and enhanced plasma density with a strong antisunward flow burst. The polar cap patch was spatially and temporally coincident with a localized antisunward flow channel. The propagation across the polar cap and the subsequent PBIs suggests that the flow channel originated from dayside reconnection and then reached the nightside open-closed boundary, triggering localized nightside reconnection and flow bursts within the plasma sheet.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
