Variation of the geomagnetic field was measured by a search-coil magnetometer at the Jang Bogo Station in Antarctica during 2021. The dataset supports the study of ultra low frequency (ULF) wave activity in the southern high latitude region. It was collected by the AMD_KOPRI organization and last updated in September 2021.
Use Cases
- Analyze ultra low frequency (ULF) wave activity from geomagnetic field variation time-series data.
- Correlate geomagnetic field measurements with solar wind data to study space weather events.
- Model local magnetic field disturbances specific to the southern high-latitude Jang Bogo Station location.
- Study diurnal or seasonal patterns in geomagnetic variation for a single calendar year.
Strengths
- Data is sourced from a dedicated Antarctic research station, providing high-latitude specificity.
- Focuses on a defined physical phenomenon (ULF wave activity) for a full calendar year (2021).
Limitations
- Dataset scope is limited to a single year (2021) and a single geographic location.
- Unknown sample rate, row count, and data completeness for the time-series.
- Lacks accompanying metadata such as specific column definitions or calibration information.
