The International Real-time Magnetic Observatory Network (INTERMAGNET) is a world-wide consortium of institutes operating ground-based magnetometers recording the absolute level of the Earth's time-varying magnetic field, [2] [3] [4] to an agreed set of standards. INTERMAGNET has its roots in discussions held at the Workshop on Magnetic ...
The International Real-time Magnetic Observatory Network, with over 100 interlinked geomagnetic observatories around the world, has been recording the Earth's magnetic field since 1991. The military determines local geomagnetic field characteristics, in order to detect anomalies in the natural background that might be caused by a significant ...
A polarity chron, or in context chron, [4] is the time interval between polarity reversals of Earth's magnetic field. [5] It is the time interval represented by a magnetostratigraphic polarity unit. It represents a certain time period in geologic history where the Earth's magnetic field was in predominantly a "normal" or "reversed" position ...
The official planetary K p-index is derived by calculating a weighted average of K-indices from a network of 13 geomagnetic observatories at mid-latitude locations.Since these observatories do not report their data in real-time, various operations centers around the globe estimate the index based on data available from their local network of observatories.
The basic principle for the generation of GIC: variations of the ionospheric currents (I(t)) generate an electric field (E(t)) driving GIC. Shown are also real GIC recordings from the Finnish natural gas pipeline. A time-varying magnetic field external to the Earth induces telluric currents—electric currents in the conducting ground. These ...
The Earth's field is roughly like a tilted dipole, but it changes over time (a phenomenon called geomagnetic secular variation). Mostly the geomagnetic pole stays near the geographic pole , but at random intervals averaging 440,000 to a million years or so, the polarity of the Earth's field reverses.
