Scientific paper

The effects of solar wind- high speed streams in the equatorial ionosphere in the Brazilian longitudinal sector are studied. Focus is given to ionospheric responses in terms of its critical parameters, like the F layer critical frequency, peak height and the vertical plasma drift, and the total plasma content of the ionosphere resulting from both the short duration prompt penetration electric field as well as the longer lasting disturbance dynamo electric fields. The interplanetary data utilized in the study corresponds to geocentric distances of 20-50 earth radii in the sunward direction. The ionospheric data are obtained from a Digisondes operated at São Luis (44.6W, 2.33S dip angle 2.3S for epoch 2003), and total electron content data is from the GPS satellite receiving network.
