Magnetic Equivalent Amplitude Indices
</dt>
A linear measure of geomagnetic disturbance activity, based on the
K-indices that gives an equivalent amplitude of the magnetic disturbance for
the 3-hour period denoted by a<math>p</math>. A daily index
A<math>p</math> is defined as the average of the
a<math>p</math> value over the 8 values of the day. See magnetic
K-indices. [[/a>|/a>]]
