摘要: Abstract This article reviews both the observational and theoretical studies of polar cap arcs. These arcs are auroral that occur in or poleward regions oval. The following related topics briefly discussed article: (1) dayside aurora; (2) oval/substorm (3) large-scale convection, current, precipitation configurations at high latitudes during northward interplanetary magnetic fields
