dc.description.abstractThe behaviour of the geomagnetic field as observed almost continuously at three European locations over the last 130 years is investigated by means of a non-linear forecasting approach. The analysis of the data in terms of first-differences (secular variation) of the horizontal magnetic components made in phase space with the simplex technique seems to exclude the pre-eminence of any stochastic or periodic behaviour. The dimensionality of the underlying non-linear process and the corresponding largest positive Lyapunov exponent are estimated. The results give some evidence that the geomagnetic field evolves as a non-linear chaotic system with unpredictable behaviour after times greater than a few years, confirming the common practice of updating global models of the geomagnetic field every 5 years.en
