Scientific paper

The responsne of the equatorial night-time F-region to magnetic stormtime disturbances has been examined using mainly ionograms recorded at Trivandrum and magnetograms recorded at high, middle and low latitudes during the magnetic storm of 23-26 November 1986. The analysis revealed a close coupling between the equatorial F-region and high-latitude magnetic field disturbances originating in solar wind-magnetosphere interactions. The presence of spread-F on ionograms during this period is found to be consistent with the Rayleigh-Taylor instability mechanism for the growth of the irregularities.
