Auroral observations, radio reception, and magnetic conditions at the Sitka Magnetic Observatory, August 1927 to June 1928

View through CrossRef
This report is a continuation of the investigation, begun in 1923, of the relation between aurora and the Earth's magnetic field and of the effect of the aurora and magnetic conditions upon radio reception.The program of the work has been divided into four parts: (a) The observation of the aurora at the Sitka Magnetic Observatory with a comparison of the Earth's magnetic field; (b) reports of aurora observed at various radio stations throughout Alaska; (c) a record of the daily reception of radio at Sitka and Fort Yukon, with a comparison of the magnetic conditions, and (d) a log of the auroral frequency.
