Abstract

The evolution of total electron content and slab thickness at Tucuman, Argentina, during the geomagnetic storms of 12 June 1982, 16 July 1982, 6 August 1982, 10 December 1982 and 4 February 1983 is studied. It is found that the storm effects present a good agreement with so-called "regular" storms. The role of electric fields and thermospheric winds is discussed.
