ak50266@yahoo.com Magnetometer data from Searchcoil magnetometers in the Indian sectors have been analyzed to study geomagnetic pulsations in the low latitude region. On April 01 2005, we observe Pc 4 events at ~ 19 UT in the frequency range 10-15 mHz. The oscillations are seen in all the components (H, D, Z) indicating thereby that oscillations are compressional in nature. These pulsations are very much on the line of expectations at these latitudes. Apart from these normal pulsations, we observe the presence of pearl-type oscillations (~ 4 Hz) which is very unlikely at these latitude. These waves are common features of high latitude regions. The interesting aspect of these observed pearl-type features is that they follow a spike of broad-band source as revealed by the dynamic spectra. We are examining the role of thunderstorm lightening in generating these pearl-type pulses. Schumann resonances serve as indicators of lightning phenomena and we use their occurrences as parameter for lightening for correlating observed pulses to spiky broadband features preceding these pulses.
