Schumann Resonance
What Are The Schumann Resonances?
The Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the
Earth's electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and
excited by lightning discharges in the Earth's electromagnetic cavity (The space between the Earth's surface and
the Ionosphere).
The resonant frequencies are between 3-60 Hz and have distinct peaks around the following extemely low
frequencies;
- 7.83 Hz (fundamental)
- 14.3 Hz
- 20.8 Hz
- 27.3 Hz
- 33.8 Hz

X-axis represents time, in hours, using Tomsk Summer Daylight Time (TLVA UTC+7)
Y-axis: represents the frequency between 0 and 40 Hz
Date: A series of three dates are displayed horizontally at the top of the chart in order from left to right.
Time: For each day a 0-24 hour sequence is displayed horizontally at the bottom of the chart. The timezone is of
the location of the monitoring station, Tomsk Summer Daylight Time (TLVA).
Color: indicates amplitude (strength/intensity), black and blue are the background colors and then the scale moves from
green up through red to the highest amplitude represented in white
The brain uses an ELF oscillating system, primarily making use of calclium-ions to control neurotransmitters
External ELF signals induce altered neuron calcium ion effluxes in brain tissue.
Animals and humans have evoleved in an environment saturated by the SR signal for roughly 3 billion years.
Stable synchronization of the brain by SR signals has led to thinking, emotion, memory, and intelligence
Brain has electromagnetic transmitters and receivers in the neurons.
Environmental Effects
S/GMA (Solar/Geomagnetic Activity) has been shown to affect the SR signal amplitude (strength), and as we know the schumann resonance cycle effects human beings.
Correlations between sunpspot number and GMA activitity indices also coincide with certain health effects.
X-ray and gamma radiation rom solar winds have an impact on the SR signal strength and can alter the diurnal cycle. X-rays ionize the atoms it comes in contant with
and enhances concentration of ions in the D-region of the ionosphere. Di-region is the top of the ionosphere cavity in which the SR signal exists.
Daily variation in the D-region produces the variation in the SR signal. Solar storms are also known to produce variations in the SR signal.
