| Title | 1-100Hz ULF/ELF Electromagnetic Wave Observation |
| Sub-Title | |
| Data Summary | This instrument was installed by JARE-41 in 2000 to observe the electromagnetic waves in 8-60 Hz named Schumann resonances, which is excited by the global lightning discharges. The search coil magnetometes and ELF amplifier are deployed at the West Ongul telemetry station. The transferred data are recorded in a personal computer with a sampling rate of 400 Hz consitnuously and stored to a hard disc drive (HDD). The data stored in HDD are also transferred to NIPR via Intelsat satellite network. |
