  • Nevanlinna and Tanskanen, "Early auroral photography and observations at the Sodankylä ...", Hist. Geo Space Sci. 15, 17-25, 2024: "Professor Selim Lemström (1838-1904) (University of Helsinki) published descriptions of several auroral and telluric current experiments carried out at the Sodankylä observatory during the first polar year in 1882-1884 (Lemström, 1883, 1885; Simojoki, 1978)." The paper is mostly about 1927-1933 photography (Størmer).

Bearing on the claims

  • Claim 6: confirms the setting (First International Polar Year, Sodankylä) and gives the primary references (Lemström 1883, 1885) and a historical review (Simojoki 1978) to obtain. Partial: the paper does not evaluate the 1882 streamer.
