Ideally, it is the total range of deviation at an instant of time from quiet day values of the horizontal magnetic field (H) around the auroral oval. The hourly AE, AL, AU, and AO indices were derived from hourly scaled values of magnetic horizontal intensity or the means of indices measured at finer sample increments (2.5 or 1.0-minute). These indices are derived from a network of geomagnetic observations that encircle the northern auroral oval. purpose: Research - Auroral Zone Magnetic Activity status: (MD_ProgressCode) underDevelopment pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Justin Mabie organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce positionName: Space and Terrestrial Weather Specialist contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: (303) 497-6135 facsimile: (303) 497-6513 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 325 Broadway, Mail Code E/GC4 city: Boulder administrativeArea: CO postalCode: 80305-3328 country: USA electronicMailAddress: Justin.Mabie@noaa.gov role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) irregular descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > SOLID EARTH > Geomagnetism > Geomagnetic Indices type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: NASA/GCMD Earth Science Keywords date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Space Physics > Magnetospheric Science keyword: Indices, AE keyword: Geomagnetism type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Uncontrolled Keywords date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: ICSU-WDS > International Council for Science - World Data System type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) project thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Project Keywords date: (CI_Date) date: 2020-01-09 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) publication edition: 9.1 citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Earth Science Data and Information System contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/idn/gcmd-keywords name: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords description: The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
