Scientific paper

Changes in TEC during 58 magnetic storms were compared at stations with similar geographic and geomagnetic latitudes and eastward declinations in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. It is found that the positive storm phase is generally larger and earlier in the Southern Hemisphere and that negative storm effects are larger in the Northern Hemisphere, reducing the normal asymmetry in TEC between the two hemispheres. Results support both a diurnal change in composition of opposite sign in the two hemispheres and enhanced westward winds at night changing to eastward near sunrise.
