Time is expressed with year, month, day, and hour, each stored in integer format. Details of the data record format is described at http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/dstae/format/dstformat.html
The Dst index is calculated by the sum of base value (unit 100nT) and 24 hourly value (unit 1nT). Details of the data record format is described at http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/dstae/format/dstformat.html
