SESAME Fluxgate Magnetometer, Key Parameters

ResourceID
spase://NASA/NumericalData/SESAME/KeyParameters/MAG/PT60S

Description

This set of key parameters from the SESAME (Satellite Experiments Simultaneous with Antarctic Measurements) ground-based experiment contains H, D, and Z components of the Earth's magnetic field, measuring variation of field relative to an arbitrary baseline. The data is accurate to 1nT, with 1 minute data representing 'spot' values of the 1Hz sampling. Please see reference: Dudeney, J. R. et. al., Satellite Experiments Simultaneous with Antarctic Measurements (SESAME), Space Science Reviews, Volume 71, Issue 1-4, pp. 705-742, 1995.
