A comparative study is conducted of spread F occurrence characteristics at a magnetic equatorial station and a low latitude station located within a relatively small longitudinal interval, in Brazil. A strong correlation is noted between the occurrence of spread F events at the two stations, although the spread F onset times over the equator are systematically earlier than those over the low latitude location. In addition, although the spread F durations at the two locations are approximately linearly related, an event over the low latitude station is observed only for those cases having durations of more than 4-5 hours over the other. Attention is given to the implications of these results for the plasma bubble rise velocities in the equatorial ionosphere.
