The auroral zones are regions where electrons penetrate and deposit energy into the ionosphere. On an average quiet day, the auroral zone is situated near a geomagnetic latitude of 67 degrees. The auroral zone is a dynamic region capable of rapid expansion and intensification during substorm periods.
