Schumann resonances (SRs) are the AC components of the global electric circuit and are excited by the lightning activity within the Earth–ionosphere waveguide. An induction magnetometer, which was operated from the Indian Antarctic station, Maitri (70.8S, 11.7E), served to examine the SR parameter...
