Scientific paper

An investigation is made of annual variations of the height, electron density, and profile width of the equatorial F2-layer in the American and Indian sectors. January values of height and electron density are found to exceed July values irrespective of hemisphere. This is caused mainly by variations of atomic oxygen, whose concentration at the winter solstice exceeds that at the summer solstice at all phases of the solar cycle. Profile-width variations reflect seasonal variations of atmospheric temperature.
