In this work the first results of the creation of a substorms catalog including the mid-latitude positive bays (MPB) registered at the Bulgarian station Panagjurishte (∼37° GMLat, ∼97° GMLon) are presented. MPB index characterizes the mid-latitude effect of substorm, which developed at auroral latitudes, and it is associated with the substorm current wedge.
The work went in several lines. First, the catalog design and content were taken. Second, tools of data processing have been developed. Third, substorms during two months, namely January and February 2013 were identified. And finally, data processing was implemented and the characteristics of the positive bays were determined.
The obtained data and their visualizations were put in a convenient folder and file structure, ftp positioned.
