Measurements of the total electron content (TEC) have been made at Fort Monmouth since ATS-6 was launched into a geostationary orbit in May 1974. The measurements make use of the Faraday polarization-rotation and group dispersive-delay techniques. A comparison of the TEC rate of change obtained by the two techniques yields the temporal variation of the integrated number of free electrons above the ionosphere. This variation indicates a flow of electrons from regions above the ionosphere into the ionosphere at night, while during the day the direction of flow is reversed.
