Scientific paper

Hf Doppler observations of vertical plasma drifts in the evening F region of the equatorial ionosphere at Trivandrum are presented. The observations reveal a consistent pattern characterized by a post-sunset enhancement with peak drift velocity in the range 30-60 m/s for quiet conditions. A striking feature of the observations is the presence of a significant fluctuation component in the drift velocity with quasiperiods ranging from a few minutes to a few tens of minutes during both quiet and disturbed periods.
