Characterization of Equatorial Ionization Anomaly at the African Southern Hemisphere During a High Solar Activity Period

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study was carried out using Total Electron Content (TEC) data from Global Navigation satellite systems (GNSS) situated in the equatorial-low latitudes region to characterize the quiet-time equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) over African sector during high solar activity year 2013.The day-to-day (TEC) and monthly (MTEC) variations generally exhibits minimum pre-sunrise (0400-0500 LT) hrs magnitudes that start rising gradually at sunrise (0600 LT) hrs to reach their peak around (1200-1700 LT) hrs respectively.The TEC generally exhibit random spread that is mild at
