South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA)
It is the near-Earth region where the Earth's magnetic field is weakest relative to an idealized Earth-centered dipole field.
It is an area where the Earth's inner Van Allen Radiation Belt comes closest to the Earth's surface, dipping down to an altitude of 200 KM.
This leads to an increased flux of energetic particles in this region and exposes orbiting satellites to higher-than-usual levels of radiation.
The effect is caused by the non-concentricity of the Earth and its magnetic dipole.
