Estimation of d-region ionosphere VLF reflection heights to geomagnetic storm / Nur Ilyanie Iberahim

This paper presents a study on D-region ionospheric variation in low latitude to a geomagnetic storm using tweek atmospherics. This paper identified the changes in the D region ionosphere height by measuring the tweek atmospherics received at Selangor station, Malaysia (2.55°N, 101.46°E) during the...
