How to cite SuperDARN

Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) is a made up of 36 radars 20 institutions, to cite general SuperDARN you can use:

For the general achievements of the SuperDARN Network, you can read these papers:

During your study, if using data from individual radars only, please contact the Principal Investigator (PI) of that radar about potential co-authorship. A list of radars, institutions, and their PI's information can be found here.
