“…Supporting the theoretical findings, a number of observational case studies used VLF transmitter and receiver systems, riometers, balloons, and polar satellites to measure ultrarelativistic electron precipitation associated with simultaneous EMIC wave detection by ground‐based or satellite magnetometers (Blum et al, ; Clilverd et al, , , Miyoshi et al, ; Rodger et al, , ). Using a recently developed algorithm for determination of precipitation events of sub‐MeV and MeV electrons from Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES) and Meteorological Operational (METOP‐2) satellite (Carson et al, ), Hendry et al () showed that 60% to 90% of precipitation events coincide with the waves detected on the ground. Yet the observational studies of electron precipitation into the atmosphere suggested that sub‐MeV and MeV electrons can be scattered by EMIC waves, such studies consider only the electron population inside the loss cone, leaving aside the effects of the waves on the pitch angle distribution of particles in the heart of the belt.…”
