Propagation of low frequency geomagnetic field fluctuations in Antarctica: comparison between two polar cap stations
We conduct a statistical analysis of the coherence and phase difference of low frequency geomagnetic fluctuations between two Antarctic stations, Mario Zucchelli Station (geographic coordinates: 74.7° S, 164.1° E; corrected geomagnetic coordinates: 80.0° S, 307.7° E) and Scott Base (geographic coord...
