Mesoscale Ionospheric Structures and Very Large Geomagnetic Disturbances at High Latitudes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Auroral substorms that move from auroral (<70°) to polar (>70°) magnetic latitudes (MLAT) are known to occur preferentially when a high‐speed solar wind stream passes by Earth. We report here on observations that occurred during a ∼75‐min interval with high‐speed solar wind on 28 November 2022 during which auroral arcs and very large geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs), also known as magnetic perturbation events (MPEs), with amplitude >9 nT/s = 540 nT/min moved progressively poleward at eight stations spanning a large region near and north of Hudson Bay, Canada shortly before midnight local time. Sustained GMD activity with amplitudes >3 nT/s appeared at each station for durations from 13 to 25 min. Spherical Elementary Currents Systems maps showed the poleward movement of a large‐scale westward electrojet as well as mesoscale electrojet structures and highly localized up/down pairs of vertical currents near these stations when the largest GMDs were observed. This study is consistent with other recent studies showing that very large poleward‐progressing GMDs can occur under high Vsw conditions, but is the first to document the sustained occurrence of large GMDs over such a wide high‐latitude region.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
