Disturbed Periods: 
active 7 Dec to 8 Dec, active on 21 Dec.

Best Quiet Periods: 
  30 Nov,  3 Dec to 5 Dec,  9 Dec to 12 Dec,  14 Dec to 19 Dec,  24 Dec to

3. FORECAST FOR HIGH RESOLUTION AEROMAGNETIC SURVEYS

Northern Australian Regions: NA

Central Australian Regions:
 Disturbed Periods: None.
 Best Quiet Periods: 2 Dec to 4 Dec,  9 Dec to 19 Dec,  24 Dec to 26 Dec.

Southern Australian Regions:

Pc3 pulsations are high frequency (10-45 second period) variations 
of the Earths magnetic field. Daily pc3-indices are the daily sum of 
20 minute pc3-indices for that station and have been shown to be well 
correlated with rejection of high resolution aeromagnetic survey 
flight-line data.
