Auroral kilometric radiations (AKR) are strong radio emission phenomena, and can produce significant acceleration or scattering of radiation belt electrons. The variation of AKR wave amplitude with the latitude (λ) has not been reported so far owing to lack of measurements. Here, using observations...
