abstract = "Using data collected by a Digisonde DPS-04 located at Cachoeira
Paulista SP, it was possible to identify the lunar tide in the
ionosphere. We have used two parameters (fof2 and hmf2) during
2001 in order to study the semidiurnal and diurnal lunar tide. The
amplitude and phase of these oscillations were calculated using
least square analysis. The diurnal tide presented a maximum
amplitude of 0.25 MHz in Fof2 and 6 km in Hmf2. The phase was
ranged between -1 and 1 rad. Both parameters presented a seasonal
variation in phase and amplitude. For the Semidiunal lunar tide
the maximum amplitude was 0.25 MHz in August for fof2, and 4.5 km
for hmF2 in June. A semiannual variation was observed as well.",
