The Albanian Geomagnetic Repeat Station Network at 1994.75

Abstract

A new national geomagnetic network of repeat stations for total field F, horizontal component H, vertical component Z and declination D has been established in a collaboration between the Albanian Geological Society (Center for Geochemistry and Geophysics), the Tirana University (Albania) and the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica (Italy). From the observed magnetic field elements all repeat stations were referred to Epoch 1994.75 and normal reference fields were computed in the form of 1st order polynomials in latitude and longitude. An overview of all work, including a brief history of the Albanian magnetic measurements, magnetic survey results, normal fields and secular variation estimates is presented.
