SAMNET Magnetometers

 Lancaster University Homepage trans

The Ionosphere and Radio Propagation Group operates fluxgate magnetometers at sites across Northern Europe. We also collect the 1 second resolution data from 3 BGS and 5 IMAGE stations which would not otherwise be archived. More information about each magnetometer is available by clicking on the station link; for more information about SAMNET see the SAMNET homepage.
