OBSERVATIONS OF ATMOSPHERIC ELECTRICITY AT SYOWA STATION FROM FEBRUARY 1969 TO JANUARY 1970
As a part of meteorological research programmes of the 10th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition, atmospheric-electric observations of electric field, conductivity, and air-earth current near the surface at Syowa Station wefe carried out Continuously from February 1969 to January 1970, in concert...
