Abstract

Instantaneous mapping methods for hourly observations were developed within the COST 251 European Action. The hourly maps of foF2 for eclipse day are available on the web page http://www.cbk.waw.pl/rwc/idce.html of the Ionospheric Despatch Centre in Europe. However, the eclipse effect on the ionosphere requires more frequent time scale for the observations than 1 hour. This paper presents the results of maps of foF2, foF1, foE with the use of 5-minute measurements during the eclipse of 11 August 1999. The instantaneous maps ate shown be a useful tool to study the effect of the solar eclipse upon the ionosphere. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
