Simultaneous Antarctic auroral images were found for 10 pulsating aurora events. In eight cases auroral pulsations were seen in the southern hemispheric data as well, suggesting an equatorial precipitation source and a frequent interhemispheric occurrence. The long lifetimes of pulsating aurora, their interhemispheric occurrence, and the relatively high‐precipitation energies make this type of aurora an effective energy deposition process which is easy to identify from the ground‐based image data.</jats:p> Occurrence and average behavior of pulsating aurora Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics |
