Mean Energies and Energy Fluxes from THEMIS ASIs on 2010-02-16 from 9-10 UT
<p>This dataset includes the precipitated mean energies and energy fluxes determined using the THEMIS all-sky-imagers on February 16, 2010, from 9-10 UT. Versions that assumed a Gaussian distribution and those that assumed a Maxwellian distribution of the precipitated populations are both included. The methods to create the dataset are described in the following publication, for which this data was used:</p> <p>Gabrielse C, Nishimura T, Chen M, Hecht JH, Kaeppler SR, Gillies DM, Reimer AS, Lyons LR, Deng Y, Donovan E and Evans J (2021) Estimating Precipitating Energy Flux, Average Energy, and Hall Auroral Conductance From THEMIS All-Sky- Imagers With Focus on Mesoscales.

The 1200 points represent time, which are recorded in the X attribute as seconds since January 1, 1970. The 400 x 400 array represent the 400 x 400 locations where data was recorded. Those locations are stored as geographic latitude and longitudes in the GLAT and GLON attributes. </p> <p> </p>
