The electron distribution changed significantly during the geomagnetic storm from October 28 through November 1, 2003. These changes are particularly noticeable in the equatorial regions. This presentation demonstrates these changes by examining synoptic scale space weather maps of the low-latitude electron density during the Halloween storm. Using the Ionospheric Data Assimilation Three Dimensional (IDA3D), a 3DVAR assimilation algorithm, available electron density (e.g. in situ satellite and ionosonde nmF2 ) and electron content (e.g. slant TEC from GPS ground stations) are combined into statistically minimized electron density maps of the synoptic-scale density distribution. These maps demonstrate a poleward spreading of the equatorial anomaly peaks and a reduction of the high-altitude and plasmaspheric electron densities from climatological values.
