Vertical electric field - Vostok from 2006-2011
Entry ID:
ASAC_974_2
Summary
Abstract:
These data are collected under a collaborative arrangement between the Australian Antarctic Division (Principal Investigator: Gary Burns) and the Russian Antarctic Expeditions (Most-recent contact: Alexandr Frank-Kamenetsky, Institute of Arctic and Antarctic Studies, St Petersburg)
In late December 2005 (call it from 2006) a new electric field mill (EFM)commenced operation at Vostok. This ...

Quality
Specific caveats on the Vostok EF data, post 2006:
Only 'unprocessed' data are supplied at present. They have not been selected for 'fair-weather'. A calibration file is available for each year. This has not been applied to the data. Care must be taken when applying the monthly calibration data because mis-calibration is possible (e.g. snow in a connector). Where these difficulties are known, they are noted in the calibration file. When applied, the calibrations only relate the measurements to the calibration box and are not absolute measurements. The 'compression factor' of the instrument is unknown. They measurements should be regarded as 'relative' not 'absolute' values. The EFM installed in January 2006 is still operational at this date.
