MAGnetic Data Acqusition System/Circum-pan Pacific Magnetometer Network Data
1. Name of Database: MAGnetic Data Acqusition System/Circum-pan Pacific Magnetometer Network Data
2. Institution: Space Environment Research Center, Kyushu University
3. Contents of Database:
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.

6. 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://denji102.geo.kyushu-u.ac.jp/denji/obs/cpmn/cpmn_obs_e.html
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]geo.kyushu-u.ac.jp) for collaborative works.
