摘要

摘要本文将简要介绍地磁作为一门科学在南部非洲的历史发展，特别是赫曼努斯地磁观测站在这方面所起的作用。从1841年作为好望角的一个非常不起眼的记录站开始，赫曼努斯磁观测站今天是南非国家航天局(SANSA)的一部分，它的地磁场数据被广泛用于从地球发电机物理学到近地空间环境研究的国际研究项目。

Hermanus Magnetic Observatory: a historical perspective of geomagnetism in southern Africa

Abstract. In this paper a brief summary will be given about the historical development of geomagnetism as a science in southern Africa and particularly the role played by Hermanus Magnetic Observatory in this regard. From a very modest beginning in 1841 as a recording station at the Cape of Good Hope, Hermanus Magnetic Observatory is today part of the South African National Space Agency (SANSA), where its geomagnetic field data are extensively used in international research projects ranging from the physics of the geo-dynamo to studies of the near-Earth space environment.

期刊介绍： The scope of History of Geo- and Space Sciences (HGSS) is to document historical facts and knowledge and to improve awareness of the history of geoscience. The knowledge of the development of geosciences and their experimental methods and theories in the past can improve our current understanding and may stimulate current research. It is encouraging for young scientists to read biographical material of historical figures in their research area. It is important as well to learn that history of science is an integrated part of the ongoing research in their research area. Another important aim of the journal is the association of historical retrospective and current research.
