Geomagnetic Data Collected from Scott Base, Cape Evans, and Lake Vanda
Antarctica New ZealandGeomagnetic measurements were established in Antarctica in 1957 as part of the International Geophysical Year and have continued until present. Geomagnetic data have been recorded continuously but for a gap in the data from 1959 until 1963. Since 1963, the components of the Earth’s magnetic field (H, D & Z) and the large variations in this field...Created 8 September 2023 • Updated 25 March 2025 -

Middle Frequency Radar Measurements: Dynamics and Ionisation in the...
Antarctica New ZealandOur studies investigate the Antarctic middle atmosphere’s response to natural and man-made factors which change climate. The dynamical processes of this region are significant in controlling the circulation at lower altitudes, including the stratospheric ozone layer. The feedbacks in the atmosphere, couple this change to climate change at the surface. The...Created 8 September 2023 • Updated 25 March 2025 -
