An overview of magnetic-field measurements for the commensurable orbit. (a) The spacecraft trajectory (rainbow line) projected onto the modeled crustal-field map at 300 km (J. Gao et al. 2021) during the time interval shown as a color bar. (b) The time profiles of the observed magnetic-field strength (∣B∣; black) together with the crustal-field model (blue; J. Gao et al. 2021). (c) The observed magnetic-field components in the MSO coordinates. (d) Spacecraft altitude. (e) SZA.
