Magnetic field micropulsations with periods of 5 to 30 sec were studied for 7 months of 1958 at a station in southern California with a 2-m-diameter coil antenna of 21,586 turns. The local diurnal amplitude fluctuation attained maxima at 0945 and 1400 hours. Twenty-seven-day solar dependence and correlations with magnetic and ionospheric F-layer disturbances were evident. The storm time variation for micropulsation storms showed a secondary maximum at 65 min.
