Abstract
It is the purpose of this paper to give a summary of the visual observation of the aurora at the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines (to be designated University of Alaska from July 1, 1935) during the years beginning August 1932 and ending December 31, 1934. The data used represent practically a continuous watch during the hours of darkness for these years and it is felt that it is rather complete in detail. For the methods of observation and the type of data taken reference is made to an earlier publication.1Since the auroral season begins in August and continues until the following May the data have been grouped by seasons rather than by years. For the two and one‐half seasons covered, an idea of the number of displays relative to the total number of days in each group may be gained from Table 1.
