“…As such, mid-and low-latitude aurorae have formed footprints of major magnetic storms and hence major geo-effective solar eruptions (Schlegel & Schlegel, 2011;Shiokawa, Ogawa, & Kamide, 2005;Silverman, 2006;Vallance Jones, 1992;Willis, Henwood, & Stephenson, 2006;Willis, Vaquero, & Stephenson, 2009). Therefore, such auroral reports have been one of the key pathways to understand solar-terrestrial interactions in the past in terms of their long-term variability and cyclicity (Domínguez-Castro et al, 2016;Lockwood & Barnard, 2015;Lockwood et al, 2016;Silverman, 1992;Usoskin et al, 2015Usoskin et al, , 2013Vázquez, Vaquero, Gallego, Roca Cortés, & Pallé, 2016).…”
