                         ionosphere using Total Electron Content (TEC) estimated from the 
                         Global Positioning System (GPS) over Brazil. GPS TEC measurements 
                         from January 2011 to December 2012 have been used with a spatial 
                         resolution of 0.5° in longitude/latitude and a temporal resolution 
                         of 10 minutes. Using this temporal resolution was possible extract 
                         the characteristics of the lunar tide from the data. Salient 
                         features of this oscillation are presented and discussed in this 
                         work. For instance, the semidiurnal lunar tide is dominant 
                         comparing to the diurnal. Significant longitudinal and latitudinal 
                         variability have been observed in both components, which reveal a 
                         complex dynamics and structure of the local lunar tide. Seasonal 
                         variability has been observed as well.",
