Abstract
The noise-like behavior of the geomagnetic anomalies observed in Tlamacas station (volcano Popocatepetl, Mexico), linked to the ionization produced by intensive radon release, are presented in the experimental part of this study. The magnetic field perturbations produced by charge spreading currents within the fair-weather electric field are considered in the theoretical model based on the electrode. The electric charges are generated by the air ionization due to radon emanation. The simulations demonstrated that the ionization of the air leads to magnetic field perturbations of about 0.001–0.1 nT in the ULF (ultra low frequency) range 10−3–10−1 Hz. Magnetic field perturbations can be higher when the radon emanation occurs in a region with terrain irregularities.
