abstract = "The Disturbance Ionosphere Index (DIX) is an index originally
designed to express the response of the ionosphere to magnetic
disturbances. The DIX values are calculated from the deviation of
TEC data from a non-perturbed reference baseline, such as a
monthly average of TEC values. In this work we present some
details on the development of a new index, named DIXSA
(Disturbance Ionosphere Index for South America). In order to make
a more dynamic and sensitive index, the DIXSA was developed by
applying different methods to represent the non-perturbed
ionosphere reference, and including new mathematical terms into
the original DIX equation. Consequently, different approaches to
estimate the ionospheric state can emphasize certain physical
phenomena mainly observed during day or nighttime. In this way,
additional terms were included to level the contribution of
different sources of ionospheric disturbances. Therefore, we
calculated the DIXSA for some selected magnetic storm periods. The
results are presented and discussed in terms of a performance
comparison between DIXSA and DIX during magnetically disturbed
periods, selected based on the Dst index.",
