MAGnetic Data Acqusition System/Circum-pan Pacific Magnetometer Network Data

Name of Database MAGnetic Data Acqusition System/Circum-pan Pacific Magnetometer Network Data
Institution Space Environment Research Center, Kyushu University
Contents MAGDAS (Magnetic Data Acquisition System) data in the Circum-pan Pacific Magnetometer Network (CPMN) region are obtained during the CAWSES period (2005 -2009). MAGDAS magnetometers will be finished to install at 50 stations all over the world during the IHY period, which are along the 210 degree magnetic meridian and the magnetic dip equator, including East Asia, Pacific Ocean and Micronesian Islands, and South America and Africa at the different longitudes. The MAGDAS data consist from 3 components of the magnetic variations (H, D, Z) with 1-second sampling rate. Users can see summary plots by WWW, and get 1-sec digital data by request to PI (K. Yumoto). This database is very useful for investigations of the Earth Magnetism and Solar-Terrestrial Physics in term of a global disturbance of the magnetic field on the ground.

Public Offering of Database

The MAGDAS data can be provided for all the scientific purpose. Users can see summary plots of 1day stack plot for all the stations and monthly plot for each station by WWW

http://www.serc.kyushu-u.ac.jp/data/

If users need the digital data for their computational analysis, we can provide the 1-sec or 1-min digital data by request to PI (K. Yumoto; yumoto[AT]serc.kyushu-u.ac.jp) for collaborative works.
