Abstract

Abstract. We present a case study of unusual spread-F structures observed by ionosondes at two equatorial and low latitude Brazilian stations – Sao Luis (SL: 44.2° W, 2.33° S, dip angle: −6.9°) and Fortaleza (FZ: 38.45° W, 3.9° S, dip angle: −16°). The irregularity structures observed from midnight to post-midnight hours of moderate solar activity (F10.7
