Re naval degaussing operations Report on magnetic investigations in the vicinity of Darwin open magnetic proving range

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Magnetic observations were made in the vicinity of the Range for the purpose of determining the probable normal values of the vertical (Z) and horizontal (H) force components of the Earth's magnetic field in that part of the harbour which would be occupied by a ship in passing over the coils. The results of the survey are presented in this report. Two accompanying plans are included.
