Short summary
In this study we performed a wavelet and Lomb-Scargle analysis of the geomagnetic activity K-index at Lerwick (LER), Hermanus (HER) and Canberra (CNB) for the period between 1960 and 2010, overlapping with solar cycles 20 to 23. Daily mean K indices are used to identify how several harmonics of the 27.0-day recurrent period change during each solar cycle when comparing high- and mid-latitude geomagnetic activity, applying a 95% confidence level.
