Abstract

It is argued that Baker et al. (1987) may have underestimated the electron precipitation rate in the southern hemisphere in the region extending west to about 90 deg in longitude from the southern extension of the center of the South Atlantic geomagnetic anomaly (SAGA). In a reply, it is noted that Baker et al. restricted their study to the case of uniform precipitation in latitude and longitude throughout the outer-zone area, thus entailing a great simplification of the real-world situation. Comments are made on the effects of the SAGA on electron precipitation.
