ICESTAR is a new SCAR (Scientific Committee for Antarctic Research) initiative striving for international coordination of interhemispheric research in the areas of solar-terrestrial physics and polar aeronomy, promoting exchange of research ideas, and sharing experimental data from various arrays of geophysical instruments deployed over the polar regions. A specific need for the ICESTAR program is additional high resolution autonomous magnetometer stations on the Antarctic Plateau to provide a dense two-dimensional array of stations conjugate to the station arrays in Greenland. The new stations would extend the existing British Antarctic Survey low power magnetometer array poleward and eastward. The new stations will utilize a low-noise, high resolution magnetometer to obtain 1-second data thus enabling magnetic pulsation investigations. An additional important design criteria is the need for near real time data access and this will be achieved using IRIDIUM satellite data acquisition. We present our design for the next generation Antarctic autonomous magnetometer station, deployment considerations, and a brief overview of ICESTAR scientific plans.
