Résumé

This thesis is devoted to the study of the Schumann Resonances (SRs) measured at the Sierra Nevada station (Granada, Spain). The SRs occur in the cavity delimited by the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere, which is mainly excited by the atmospheric electric phenomena. These resonances belong to the Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) band of the electromagnetic spectrum, and their approximate frequencies are 8 Hz, 14 Hz, 20 Hz, 26 Hz, etc. Each resonance is defined by three parameters: its amplitude, its central frequency and its width.
