We have computed vertical cutoff rigidities from 1955 to 1995, at five-year intervals, for neutron monitor stations. We have utilized the Definitive International Geomagnetic Reference Field as published by IAGA for five-year intervals from 1955 to 1990 and the Interim International Geomagnetic Reference Field for 1995. The results show that the changes in cutoff rigidity are not linear and vary with location over the world. We find that the vertical cutoff rigidity is relatively stable for European cosmic ray stations. However, there is a substantial reduction in the vertical cutoff rigidity at Latin American and Southern Africa stations. At the same time we have found a slow, but steady increase in the vertical cutoff rigidity values at cosmic ray stations located near the east coast of North America.
