Abstract

The classical methods of recording ionospheric effects due to solar flares include: sudden absorption increases observed with HF commercial CW transmissions (SWF) or with riometers (SCNAs), and with pulse absorption techniques; VLF/LF phase and amplitude changes (SPA, SEA, SES); and sudden frequency deviations observed with HF standard frequency transmissions (SFD). Figure 1 gives an example of some of these effects recorded during the flare of January 30, 1968.
