Correlation analysis of geomagnetic parameters due to hemispheric asymmetry: article

The SERC, Kyushu University was deploying MAGDAS in the CPMN region. MAGDAS can be defined as MAGnetic Data Acquisition System which monitors global electromagnetic and plasma environment change in geospace. The correlation analysis of geomagnetic parameters due to hemispheric asymmetry was discussed in this paper. In this project, the MAGDAS data is used to determine the geomagnetic disturbances at three different stations where at Manado, Indonesia (1.44˚N, 128.84˚E) for equatorial region, Cooktown, Australia (15.48˚S, 145.25˚E) for Southern region, and Amami-Oh-Shima, Japan (28.17˚N, 129.33˚E) for Northern region. To distinguish the amplitude variations at these stations, four geomagnetic parameters were considered which H, D, Z, and F components. Three different months were deliberated for Manado, Cooktown, and Amami-Oh-Shima on March, April, and January, respectively. The MAGDAS data was simulated by using MATLAB GUI and from this project, the H component at all regions is shows the earth’s activities most affected by and the largest effects are at the equatorial part, Manado.
