Abstract
"We apply detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) on fluxgate and. search-coil data in ULF range (scales 10-90 s or 0.1-0.011 Hz) for the. months January-April 2009 available from the South European GeoMagnetic. Array stations: Castello Tesino (CST), Ranchio (RNC), and. L’Aquila (AQU) in Italy; Nagycenk (NCK) in Hungary; and Panagyuriste. (PAG) in Bulgaria. DFA is a data processing method that allows. for the detection of scaling behaviors in observational time series even in. the presence of non-stationarities. The H and Z magnetic field components. at night hours (00-03 UT, 01-04 LT) and their variations at the stations.
