The WLS experiment will be run to provide wide latitude coverage designed to probe substorm activity. The experiment includes an elevation scan to the north, local three position data for winds and electric fields above Millstone, and two fixed positions at low elevation angle to the north to provide high latitude electric fields with good time resolution. Local 10 Position. Coordinated radar and optical observations. Radar measurements taken in 10 directions will allow estimation of spatial gradients.
Clear weather is required.
