Cosmic ray ionization in the D region at sunrise: evidence from vlf phase measurements

Description

A temporary phase recovery observed on long‐distance VLF propagation paths at sunrise is shown to be associated with cosmic‐ray ionization. Simultaneous measurements of the phase carried out at Atibaia, Säo Paulo, and Jaguaräo, Rio Grande de SuI, appear to demonstrate a latitudinal effect in this phenomenon.
