      <Description>The Geomagnetism team measures, records, models and interprets variations in the 
	  Earth’s natural magnetic fields.

	  the environment, from deep within the core out into space.

      They also provide geomagnetic products and services to industry and to academic colleagues and 
	  they use our knowledge for information and education.</Description>
