Summary The long‐term variation of the apparent magnetic constant, G , for Istanbul is analysed to determine the effect of solar and magnetic activities on it. A high correlation is found between Δ G and the sunspot number for the period of 1949–1972. The same analysis is also carried out for the H, Z and F components of the Earth's magnetic field for comparison of the results obtained from two analyses.
