Magnetic declination control of the equatorial F region dynamo electric field development and spread F
Abstract
We have carried out a comparative study of the evening prereversal enhancements in the equatorial F region vertical ionization drift velocities (V Z) over Fortaleza (4°S, 38°W), Brazil, and Jicamarca (12°S, 77°W), Peru, two magnetic equatorial stations in the American zone. The results show profound dissimilarities in the seasonal trends in the times and widths of the V Z prereversal peak, which reflect in the spread F characteristics as well, at the two stations. The dissimilarities are shown to be arising mainly from the difference in the magnetic field declination angles that causes differences in the conjugate E region sunset durations and, hence, in the F region polarization electric field development rates at the two stations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
