| Summary: | <p>We present a collection of magnetic field absolute
measurements performed by the early Soviet magnetic satellite missions Kosmos-49
(1964) and Kosmos-321 (1970). A total of 17 300 measured values are available
for the Kosmos-49 mission, covering homogeneously 75 % of the Earth's surface
between <span class="inline-formula">49<sup>∘</sup></span> latitude north and south. About 5000 measured values
are available for the Kosmos-321 mission, covering homogeneously 94 % of the
Earth's surface between <span class="inline-formula">71<sup>∘</sup></span> latitude north and south. The data are
available at PANGAEA (Krasnoperov et al., 2020, <a href="https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.907927">https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.907927</a>).</p> |
