Australian Geomagnetism Report 2005

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

During 2005 Geoscience Australia operated geomagnetic observatories at Kakadu and Alice Springs in the Northern Territory; Charters Towers in Queensland; Learmonth and Gnangara in Western Australia; Canberra in the Australian Capital Territory; Macquarie Island, Tasmania, in the sub-Antarctic; and Casey and Mawson in the Australian Antarctic Territory. Three geomagnetic repeat stations were also occupied in 2005. The Australian Geomagnetism Report 2005 (Volume 53) describes instrumentation and activities; absolute reference magnetometers; data distribution; and presents monthly and annual mean magnetic values, plots of hourly mean magnetic values and K indices at the magnetic observatories and repeat stations operated by Geoscience Australia during calendar year 2005.
