                         in March 2006. The GMDN is currently consisting of four 
                         multi-directional muon telescopes located at Nagoya (Japan), 
                         Hobart (Australia), Sao Martinho (Brazil) and Kuwait University 
                         (Kuwait). This Network is continuously monitoring the galactic 
                         cosmic rays intensity in a total of 60 directional channels 
                         covering almost the entire sky. Maximum Entropy analysis has been 
                         used to compute the power spectral density for each detector 
                         during the period March 2006 - December 2007. The spectrum is 
                         expressed by a single power law dependence of the form f-n, where 
                         n is rigidity dependent. The first two harmonics of the solar 
                         daily variation are well defined at each station. The atmospheric 
                         temperature effect has been removed for the data and the cosmic 
                         rays anisotropy in three dimensions was calculated.",
