Scientific paper

The behavior of the equatorial anomaly in the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) around the northern anomaly crest region was studied, using the differential Doppler data from the U.S. Navy Navigation Satellite System and the Faraday rotation data from the Japanese geostationary satellite ETS 2 to construct the ionospheric TEC contour charts for each day from October 1, 1985 to September 30, 1988. The daily development of the equatorial anomaly was found to exhibit day-to-day variability not only on magnetically disturbed days but also on quiet days. As the magnitude of the TEC of the daily maximum anomaly crest and/or the equatorial electrojet strength increase, the anomaly crest moves poleward. The monthly mean diurnal development of the equatorial anomaly showed a remarkable seasonal difference, with the anomaly being largest in equinoxes and being slightly larger in winter than in summer.
