TY - PCOMM AU - A.chambodut, S. Chicarella PY - 2017// TI - Dome C Magnetic Observatory on Concordia station N2 - Dôme C magnetic observatory was officially opened at the beginning of 2005 in the inland of Antarctica (lat. 75deg06'S, long. 123deg23'E). Since 2009, the field is recorded continuously at 1Hz. The baselines of the triaxial variometer are controlled by standard absolute measurements made at a regular rate all over the year.
The magnetic observatory's logistic and technical issues are numerous arising from the fact that observers and instruments operate in such extreme conditions, as for instance:
- an external temperature varying between -30degC and -75degC,
- a total darkness lasting two months, and
- an ice shelf movements noticeable in baselines.
Comparisons are done with data provided by the nearest observatories (Dumont d'Urville, Terra Nova Bay, Vostok, …) and with various global models.
