Cosmic ray origin neutron count data was measured by a neutron monitor at the Jang Bogo Station in Antarctica. The dataset was collected by AMD_KOPRI and last updated in September 2018. It supports the study of neutron count variation in the southern high latitude region.
Use Cases
- Analyze temporal variation in neutron count to correlate with solar flare events.
- Study the modulation of cosmic ray intensity using the neutron count time-series from a high-latitude station.
- Model the atmospheric response to cosmic rays using neutron flux data from Antarctica.
Strengths
- Data originates from a neutron monitor at a high-latitude Antarctic station, a key location for cosmic ray observation.
- Records are timestamped, enabling precise time-series analysis for the year 2018.
Limitations
- The dataset's sample size, temporal coverage, and specific measurement frequency are unknown.
- Data is from a single station in 2018, limiting geographic and temporal generalizability.
