Abstract
This research is conducted in Baghdad magnetic observatory – Jadriya by monitoring the measured
total magnetic field around the clock for a whole year, for the purpose of defining magnetic baseline in
order to identify the actual magnetic background for the site of Baghdad magnetic observatory. These
observations show daily and seasonal variations in the field according to weather conditions and other
factors in upper atmosphere. These variations are reflected directly on the earth magnetic field.
Therefore, these readings have been plotted and analyzed to determine the magnetic baseline for the
Baghdad observatory site. The average value was found to be equal to (45473.08) Gamma. It was
shown that there is a unique value for each month of the year, that varies slightly according to sun
activities during the summer.
