vol04no042_3.txt Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Interaction Studies at High Latitudes The SPWG in collaboration with the University of Maryland and the Australian Antarctic Division, in February 1997 commissioned a new imaging riometer at the Australian Davis station in Antarctica. In addition, the SPWG operates magnetometers at the four Australian Antarctic stations Davis, Casey, Mawson and Macquarie Island, and the New Zealand Scott Base (McMurdo). With this multi-instrumented network of stations covering 65 - 80 degrees geomagnetic latitude, the SPWG is engaged in studies involving ultra-low frequency (ULF) hydromagnetic waves and electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves in the 1 mHz - 5 Hz frequency band in relation to dayside cusp and night-time auroral phenomena. www-ssc.igpp.ucla.edu /~editor/vol04no042_3.txt   (411 words)

Cosmic hole-in-one captured over Antarctica SpaceRef - Your Space Reference But the most detailed evidence of the trail of dust, carried by strong winds around Antarctica, has been captured by the LIDAR at Davis station. The Davis LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a remote sensing instrument which profiles atmospheric density, temperature and wind velocity as a function of altitude. What a powerful telescope had picked up as it stretched towards the night sky over Antarctica was the trail of dust left in the wake of the death of an asteroid. www.spaceref.com /news/viewpr.html?pid=17719&from=astrowire.com   (824 words)
