A study has been made of the detailed changes in NmF2 occurring at several stations during the early stages of severe magnetic storms using, where available, quarter-hourly values of critical frequency. It has been found that at the onset of the main phase of certain storms, marked decreases in NmF2 occur at a world-wide network of stations; during daytime the decreases have a duration of 2-3 hr while during night-time the disturbances persist for many hours, especially at temperate latitudes. These reductions in NmF2 are accompanied by increases in layer height. The observations are discussed in terms of current ideas on F2-region disturbances, and it is suggested that a redistribution of ionization caused by a vertical, height-dependent motion represents a possible explanation.
