dc.description.abstract | © 2019 Elsevier LtdIn this paper we analyse the effects of 25 solar flare events over long VLF propagation paths, one of them with the very remarkable property of crossing nearly the centre with the lowest magnetic field intensity in the South Atlantic Magnetic Anomaly (SAMA). The phase of the VLF transmitter signal (NPM: 21.4 kHz) on Lualualei, Hawaii, was recorded at the stations Punta Lobos (PLO, Peru) and Atibaia (ATI, Brazil) between 2007 March and 2011 September. Both paths NPM-PLO and NPM-ATI are collinear, and the comparison of the recorded phases suggests a descent of the lower ionosphere quiescent reflection height, possibly associated with the weakening of the Earth magnetic field in the SAMA region. | |
