DATASET OVERVIEW
Description(s)
Abstract
The VLF/ELF crossed loop antenna data observed at Athabasca, Canada. The data consist
of variations of two-dimensional (north-south and east-west) magnetic field taken
with a sampling rate of 100 kHz, and some engineering parameters for the instrument,
such as the sensitivity and phase difference. The digital data are distributed in
the Common Data Format (CDF) through the ERG-SC repository. Important Notes: 1. Sensitivity
peak at 8 kHz. 2. ch.1: VLF-NS, ch.2: VLF-EW, ch.3: riometer, ch.4: GPS 1pps. ch:1(VLF-NS):
E-W antenna measuring NS magnetic field variation. ch:2(VLF-EW): N-S antenna measuring
EW magnetic field variation 3. Please see https://stdb2.isee.nagoya-u.ac.jp/vlf/vlf_stations.html
for the latest information. From February 27 to September 22, 2012, there are no data
due to noisy operation near the AUGSO building. At 05:30 UT on November 12, 2015,
the sampling rate was reduced from 100 kHz to 40 kHz. At 23:50 UT on October 26, 2016,
the channel is reduced from 4ch to 3ch (riometer channel is removed).
