Scientific paper

A recurring feature of summer evening amplitudes of the 137 MHz signal from ATSI received at Townsville is a period of scintillation with a fairly well defined commencement around 2200 h and lasting for several hours. Days preceding and succeeding each such scintillation event were examined for associated effects by comparing them with days with no scintillation. The total content and peak density are depressed on average throughout the day preceding the scintillation events and the layer thickness is increased. The characteristics of the scintillation events are consistent with the cause being equatorial plasma bubbles.
