Scientific paper

Two different experiments, HF-ground-backscatter and HF-CW-Doppler, were used to investigate traveling ionospheric disturbance (TID) over Africa and South America. A Fourier analysis of data collected over 26 months reveals consistent diurnal and seasonal variation. Sources of the atmospheric gravity waves responsible for exciting the TID are examined. The most likely source is held to be penetrative cumulative convection in the intertropical convergence zone.
