When utilizing this plasma regime identification (RID) list in your publication, we request that you reference the two papers listed below, which have been submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research.
These complementary papers together describe the RID identification process (paper 1) and the overall characteristics of the RID data set (paper 2).
Neither paper is truly complete without the other.
Typical referencing would be to cite both papers in the text where you first utilize the information.
