NOTE: Indices may have been generated from data obtained in 
cooperation with the following organisations: Geoscience Australia, 
University of Newcastle Space Physics Group, Australian Government 
Antarctic Division and Space Environment Research Center, Japan.

Quiet with some unsettled periods on 08 Nov.

2. FORECAST (17 NOVEMBER - 17 DECEMBER)
Disturbed Periods: 
 Possible active periods 18 to 19 Nov, 26 to 27 Nov, 5 Dec.

Best Quiet Periods: 
 22 Nov to 25 Nov, 29 Nov to 04 Dec, 06 Dec to 17 Dec.

3. FORECAST FOR HIGH RESOLUTION AEROMAGNETIC SURVEYS

Northern Australian Regions:
 Disturbed Periods: None.
 Best Quiet Periods: 23 Nov to 17 Dec.

Central Australian Regions:
 Disturbed Periods: None.
 Best Quiet Periods: 23 Nov to 17 Dec.

Southern Australian Regions:
 Disturbed Periods: None.
 Best Quiet Periods: 23 Nov to 17 Dec.

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.

PLEASE NOTE:
Geomagnetic activity can frequently be determined by short timescale 
solar events that cannot be forecast a week in advance, particularly
at solar maximum.
