Ionospheric irregularity zonal velocities over Cachoeira Paulista

We have studied the zonal drift velocity of nighttime ionospheric irregularities from Cachoeira Paulista (22.41°S,45°W, dip latitude −17.43°), a station under the Equatorial Anomaly, from December 1998 to February 1999 using L1 band GPS receivers and OI 630 nm all-sky images. The average decimetric...

Description
Summary:We have studied the zonal drift velocity of nighttime ionospheric irregularities from Cachoeira Paulista (22.41°S,45°W, dip latitude −17.43°), a station under the Equatorial Anomaly, from December 1998 to February 1999 using L1 band GPS receivers and OI 630 nm all-sky images. The average decimetric solar flux index for this period of increasing solar activity was about 145 and magnetically quiet days with ΣKp
