Geomagnetic data
from
Tromsø Geophysical Observatory University of Tromsø, Norway |
| Tromsø is the geomagnetic observatory
for North-Norway. It is located on the Tromsø island close to the
town's centre. When established in 1929 it was located in peaceful, rural
surroundings. Today it more or less engulfed by built up areas, but the
magnetic environments are still satisfactory. The series of magnetic recordings
are unbroken for the entire period of operation, the second world war included.
Together with its observatory predecessor at Haldde - close to Alta, 150
km north-east of Tromsø - the time back to 1912 is covered.
