The T.E.C. Measurements over Athens - Greece Station.
Abstract
The total electron content of the ionosphere during the minimum of solar cycle has been studied. The day-time maximum electron content is greater during the equinoxes particularly during the Autumn period. The night time minimum presents its great value during the summer period. The electron content starts to increase 1 hour after sun-rise at the 300 km height. This time delay is different from season to season and is smallest in the winter. The rate of increase is at its greatest in the three hours following the morning minimum, the rate of decrease after the daytime maximum is rather irregular. (Author)
