Near Conjugate Northern Auroral Electrojet Index

ResourceID
spase://SMWG/Observatory/Ground/NAE

Description

The NAE observatory is a virtual observatory representing the collection of magnetometers used in the
creation of a near conjugate auroral electrojet index dataset. Conjugate to the SAE index. The NAE observatory consists
of ground magnetometers from CARISMA, DTU, GIMA, CANMOS/NRCAN, TGO, and Iceand ground magnetometer stations and arrays.
Availability of the NAE and SAE index may vary from day
to day depending upon magnetometer data availabiliy. NAE indices were only produced when data from all stations were
available. Details on the magnetometer arrays are available in the associationIDs listed below.
