Brief Description (Abstract):

The geomagnetic field station was located at geographic latitude 69 °59 S longitude 11 55 E (Dipole latitude 65 5?S longitude 54 5 E) The corrected geomagnetic co ordinates were 62 0 S 52 3?E Two intense magnetic disturbances were recorded on 10 January and 4 February with smaller scale disturbances in between Two substorms were recorded 12 February substorm is characterised by a simple rise to peak value marked with a sharp sudden impulse followed by a steady fall and 13 February substorm is in effect a sequence of substorms with periodic waxing and wanning By selected samples of magnetic records near Dakshin Gangotri and the corresponding magnetograms from the Indian equatorial region the interaction of solar wind and magnetosphere and the consequent geomagnetic field changes at auroral and equatorial latitudes have been studied.


Status: Completed

Purpose: The geomagnetic field station was located at Geographic lat 69?59 S long 11?55 E (Dipole lat65 5?S, long 54 5?E) The corrected geomagnetic co ordinates, as derived from geomagnetic mainfield model using MAGSAT data turns out to be 62 0?S, 52 3 E The conjugate location in northernhemisphere is in the vicinity of permanent geomagnetic observatories at Eskadalemuir and RudeSkov b u t there is no magnetic observatory in the precise conjugate location.
