Tormenta geomagnética, contenido electrónico total, espesor de capa, campo eléctrico, vientos meridionalesResumen
En este trabajo se estudia la evolución que presentan el contenido electrónico total y el espesor de capa equivalente en Tucumán, Argentina, durante las tormentas geomagnéticas del 12 de junio de 1982, 16 de julio de 1982, 6 de agosto de 1982, 10 de diciembre de 1982 y 4 de febrero de 1983. Se encuentra que los efectos observados presentan un buen acuerdo con los llamados comportamientos ''regulares". Se discuten además el papel que desempeñan los campos eléctricos y los vientos termosféricos meridionales.
