Evidence of low‐latitude daytime large‐scale traveling ionospheric disturbances observed by high‐frequency multistatic backscatter sounding system during a geomagnetically quiet period [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2012 Observations from the high‐frequency multistatic backscatter sounding radars on a geomagnetically quiet day (minimum Dst = −14 nT) captured the anti‐equatorward propagation of daytime large‐scale traveling ionospheric disturbance (LSTID) at the low‐latitude regions. The observed LSTID was characterized approximately by a meridional propagation speed of
