Simultaneous measurements of the O I 7774-A and 6300-A, N2(+) 3914-A, and H-beta 4861-A nightglow emissions have been obtained at Cachoeira Paulista during three magnetic storms in 1983 and 1984. No enhancements in the O I 7774-A emission due to energetic particle precipitation were noted. The results suggest radiative recombination as the main excitation mechanism. Periodic intensity variations in two of the O I 6300-A emissions were found which are associated with vertical oscillations of the ionospheric F-region plasma. No meridional and longitudinal phase changes were detected during a O I 6300-A north-south scanning observation, indicating the absence of propagation.
