摘要

We present case studies of the evolution of Ultra-Low Frequency (ULF) magnetic wave amplitudes and auroral intensity through the late growth phase and the expansion phase of the substorm cycle. We present strong evidence that substorm-related auroral enhancements are clearly and demonstrably linked to ULF wave amplitudes observed at the same location. In all three case studies presented, the correlation analysis shows that the ULF wave activity and auroral intensities are highly correlated at close to zero lag. We discuss four possible explanations that may be able to explain both the timing and the high correlations between these two phenomena, including a simple coincidence, an artifact of instrumental effects, the response of the ionosphere to magnetic waves and auroral particle precipitation, and finally, that ULF waves and auroral particle precipitation are physically linked at their source. We discount coincidence and instrumental effects since we present multiple events where instrumental effects have a negligible contribution, and we find that the ionospheric response to waves and precipitation can explain some, but not all, of the results contained within this paper. Specifically, the ionospheric response to substorm waves and auroral precipitation cannot explain the result backed up by previous studies that the onset of ULF wave activity and the onset of auroral particle precipitation occur at the same time and in the same location. This leaves the possibility that ULF waves and auroral particles are physically linked at their source. We therefore re-emphasize the importance of ULF wave observations in fully understanding the mechanism or mechanisms responsible for rapid auroral brightenings.
