geomagnetic observatories are constructed to continuously record the earth’s geomagnetic field. the importance of such buildings has resulted in an increasing construction of geomagnetic observatories all over the world. although geomagnetic observatories are sometimes unknown to most people and even some scientists, these very important data centers have been measuring the geomagnetic field fo...

Earth's geomagnetic field has undergone critical changes in the past. Studies on the influence of the magnetic field on Earth's organisms are crucial for the understanding of evolution of life on Earth and astrobiological considerations. Numerous studies conducted both on plants and animals confirmed the significant influence of the geomagnetic field on the metabolism of living organisms. Water...

The real-time accurate measurement of the geomagnetic-field is the foundation to achieving high-precision geomagnetic navigation. The existing geomagnetic-field measurement models are essentially simplified models that cannot accurately describe the sources of measurement error. This paper, on the basis of systematically analyzing the source of geomagnetic-field measurement error, built a compl...

The influence of the geomagnetic field on the development of air showers is studied. The well known International Geomagnetic Reference Field was included in the AIRES air shower simulation program as an auxiliary tool to allow calculating very accurate estimations of the geomagnetic field given the geographic coordinates, altitude above sea level and date of a given event. Some test simulation...

[1] A middleand low-latitude ionospheric theoretical model is used for the first time to assess the effects of the secular variations of geomagnetic field orientation on ionospheric long-term trends over the past century. It is found that the varied geomagnetic field can produce ionospheric long-term trends in both foF2 and hmF2. Since the amplitudes of geomagnetic field change depend on locati...

the electrical conductivity of the earth is its physical parameter, which can be studied in global scales. the investigations of the earth's electrical conductivity are based on geomagnetic field variations. time variations of the geomagnetic field consist of long-term and short-term (transient) variations. external sources induce electric currents into the earth. the induced electric curr...

Six behavioural experiments were carried out to investigate the magnetic field effects on the nest-exiting flight directions of the honeybee Schwarziana quadripunctata (Meliponini). No significant differences resulted during six experiment days under varying geomagnetic field and the applied static inhomogeneous field (about ten times the geomagnetic field) conditions. A surprising statisticall...

[1] The effect on geomagnetic activity of solar wind speed, compared with that of the strength of the interplanetary magnetic field, differs with geomagnetic latitude. In this study we construct a new index based on monthly standard deviations in the H-component of the geomagnetic field for all geomagnetic latitudes. We demonstrate that for this index the response at auroral regions correlates ...

Geomagnetic field variation in support for indoor positioning and navigation has recently attracted considerable interest because of the advantage that technology based on the geomagnetic field has no infrastructure needs. Test using sensitive magnetometers has confirmed that it is possible to use geomagnetic field information for positioning purposes, however there are still issues to be addre...

A visualization system of spatial electromagnetic environment was designed and realized. The system realized 2D and 3D visualization of electromagnetic field with electromagnetic distribution situation, isograms, and propagation direction and path. The application result shows that the prototype system can provide the user an efficient visualization tool of spatial electromagnetic environment. ...
