LOWER IONOSPHERIC EFFECTS NEAR CHRISTCHURCH FROM THE JOHNSTON ISLAND EXPLOSION OF 9 JULY 1962

· New Zealand J. Geol. Geophys.
For a period of about four hours after the Johnston Island explosion of July 9, 1962, the lowest height of detectable ionization decreased from 84 to 77 km at Christchurch. This is attributed to particle influx, probably electrons of intensity 2 x 10/sup 2/ cm/sup -2/ sec/sup -1/, during the period. These incoming electrons are believed to represent the high-energy portion of the larger influx known to have affected the F region over the same period. (auth)
