“…Many other instruments have been used to provide estimates of the location of the OCB with higher spatial and temporal coverage. These include HF radars (e.g., Baker et al, 1995Baker et al, , 1997Milan et al, 1999;Milan and Lester, 2001;Chisham et al, 2001Chisham et al, , 2002, ground-based magnetometers (e.g., Iijima and Potemra, 1978;Mishin, 1990), all-sky cameras (e.g., Akasofu and Kimball, 1965;Feldstein and Galperin, 1985), meridian scanning photometers (e.g., Blanchard et al, 1995;Sandholt et al, 1998), and satellite-based imagers (e.g., Brittnacher et al, 1999;Kauristie et al, 1999;Baker et al, 2000;Carbary et al, 2003;Boakes et al, 2008). Arguably the best instrument to estimate the location of the complete OCB (in a single hemisphere) is the satellite-based imager, which can image the whole auroral oval at a time resolution of the order of minutes, for hours at a time (see e.g., Boakes et al, 2008).…”
