Investigation of Space Weather Effects by Swarm Magnetic Field Data: The SFAC Index

Abstract The three Swarm satellites provide an optimum, low Earth orbit (LEO) and multi‐spacecraft platform, to explore for the first time the local correlation between field‐aligned currents (FACs), auroral electrojets, and magnetic perturbations at the Earth's surface. By combining Swarm and...
