| description |
The Sinji Vrh Geomagnetic Observatory (hereinafter the Observatory) is
situated on Gora above Ajdovščina, a highland karst plateau, in the
southwestern part of Slovenia. The Observatory operates in exceptional
geological and meteorological conditions due to its location. The very first
measurements at the time of initial tests showed that weather fronts induce
changes in the local magnetic field. The first measurements intended to
determine the value of this influence were carried out at the end of summer
2011. In 2013 the first such measurements were carried out in January. This
article presents the results of these measurements, showing how the snowstorm
induced changes in Earth's magnetic field. |
