Ionospheric total electron content measurements from Turkey during the solar eclipse of 29 April 1976

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5790105

Total ionospheric electron content (TEC) has been determined from the measurements of the Faraday rotation of a plane polarized wave that have been returned from the geostationary satellite ATS 6 transmitting at a frequency of 140 MHz. The results of the computations have been presented in the form of diurnal curves in order to investigate the effect of the solar eclipse of 29 April 1976 on the TEC over Ankara longitudes.
