*Title:* Ground-based multi-point network from subauroral to equatorial
latitudes by the Optical Mesosphere Thermosphere Imagers (OMTIs) and the
PWING Project

*Speaker:* Dr Kazuo Shiokawa
*Abstract:* The Optical Mesosphere Thermosphere Imagers (OMTIs) consist of
more than 20 all-sky cooled-CCD imagers, 5 Fabry-Perot interferometers, 3
airglow temperature photometers, and 3 meridian-scanning photometers. The
OMTIs measure two-dimensional airglow images in the mesopause region and
the thermosphere, wind and temperatures in the lower thermosphere, and
airglow rotational temperatures in the mesopause region. The PWING project
(study of dynamical variation of Particles and Waves in the INner
magnetosphere using Ground-based network observations, 2016-2020) operates
all-sky airglow/aurora imagers, 64-Hz sampled induction magnetometers,
40-kHz VLF receivers, and 64-Hz riometers at 8 stations at magnetic
latitudes of ~60 degrees around the north-pole. The PWING stations cover
longitudinal variations of aurora and electromagnetic disturbances in the
inner magnetosphere. These PWING and OMTIs instruments are in automatic
operation at various locations from high to equatorial latitudes in Canada,
US (Alaska), Russia, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia,
and Australia. We also recently develop low-cost cameras to expand the
network to connect between subauroral latitudes and equatorial latitudes.
In the presentation, we introduce current configuration and recent results
obtained by these multi-instrument ground networks.
