The Effects of Magnetic Storm Phase on F-Layer Irregularities from Auroral to Equatorial Latitudes.

Abstract

Ionospheric propagation high latitude and equatorial studies are included in this research. emphasis is on three magnetic storms in January, April, and May 1997 with data obtained from GPS satellites on rate of change of total electron content. One storm (April 10-11, 1997) penetrated to equatorial latitudes with phase fluctuations showing at the anomaly latitude of Santiago, Chile. The study of a large number of data sets for October 1996 was completed and accepted for journal publication.
