Abstract/Summary

Simultaneous optical all-sky imager and photometer data from South Pole station and the PACE HF radar at Halley, Antarctica from two case studies are used to show that their respective ionospheric signatures of the magnetospheric cusp are collocated to better than about 1° latitude. The plasma convection reversal as identified in the PACE data is usually observed within the region showing cusp precipitation, as expected from contemporary models of this region of geospace.
