Induction Magnetometer Observation at Zhongshan Station, Antarctica

This observation was started on Jan. 1996 at Zhongshan Station, Antarctica. It is designed to investigate space plasma waves by observing earth's magnetic field variation, including the horizontal component in north-south direction (H), and the horizontal component in east-west direction (D). It is a collaborative scientific project between Polar Research Institute of China and Newcastle University of Australia and the Antarctic Division of Australia.
