Abstract
Eight experiments on synchronized monitoring of cardiac indices at rest in six healthy women were conducted simultaneously at three geographical locations: Sofia, Moscow, and Arkhangelsk. By comparing the spectra of dynamic time series of the subjects’ pulse and of variations in the horizontal component of the geomagnetic field vector in the frequency range of Pc5 geomagnetic pulsations, it was shown that the main oscillation periods represented in the physiological and geophysical time series largely coincide. This effect was pronounced to approximately the same extent in volunteers who participated in the experiment at all three geographic locations.
