Aurora Australis
Same as Aurora Borealis, but in the Southern Hemisphere. Also known as the southern lights; the luminous, radiant emission from the upper atmosphere over middle and high latitudes, and centred around the earth's magnetic poles.
Aurora Australis: Southern Lights.
Aurora Borealis: Northern Lights.
Automated Weather Report: A weather observation (REPORT) taken by an automatic weather station.
AuroraA faint visual phenomenon associated with geomagnetic activity, which occurs mainly in the high-latitude night sky; typical auroras are 100 to 250 km above the groundAurora AustralisSame as Aurora Borealis, ...
The proper name for the aurora of the southern hemisphere is the aurora australis. Together the aurora australis and the aurora borealis are known as the aurora polaris.
A glowing light display in the night-time sky caused by excited gases in the upper atmosphere. In the Southern Hemisphere it is called the Aurora Australis or Southern Lights, in the Northern Hemisphere Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights).

bright display of constantly changing light near the magnetic poles of each hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, it is known as the aurora borealis or Northern Lights, and in the Southern Hemisphere, this phenomena is called the aurora australis.
along the magnetic field lines towards Earth's upper atmosphere, excite the gases present in the upper atmosphere and cause them to emit light which we call the auroras. The auroras are the northern (aurora borealis) and southern (aurora Australis) ...
