GREECE -- Ground-to-Rocket Electrodynamics-Electrons Correlative Experiment: High resolution rocket and ground-based investigations of small-scale auroral structure and dynamics Project

<p>
<strong>Methodology </strong>The methodology is based on making comparisons between downward electron flux, DC electric fields, electromagnetic waves, and auroral morphology. The proposed project will launch a rocket from Poker Flat over Fort Yukon to an apogee of 200-300 km when arc or arcs are present that has optical shear-flows present. Data from downgoing electron fluxes over a large energy range, electron density (Langmuir probe), electric and magnetic fields from the in-situ rocket payload and images from all-sky and narrow field cameras at Poker Flat and Fort Yukon will be produced and analyzed. All instrumentation is selected so that high temporal resolution can be achieved. &nbsp;</p>
