                         evening prereversal enhancement in the zonal electric field (PRE), 
                         that is, the F region vertical plasma drift, which basically 
                         drives the post-sunset irregularity development. Forcing from 
                         magnetospheric disturbances is an important source of modification 
                         and variability in the PRE vertical drift and of the associated 
                         bubble development. Although the roles of magnetospheric 
                         disturbance time penetration electric fields in the bubble 
                         irregularity development have been studied in the literature, many 
                         details regarding the nature of the interaction between the 
                         penetration electric fields and the PRE vertical drift still lack 
                         our understanding. In this paper we have analyzed data on F layer 
                         heights and vertical drifts obtained from digisondes operated in 
                         Brazil to investigate the connection between magnetic disturbances 
                         occurring during and preceding sunset and the consequent 
                         variabilities in the PRE vertical drift and associated equatorial 
                         spread F (ESF) development. The impact of the prompt penetration

                         the evolution of the evening PRE vertical drift and thereby on the 
                         ESF development are briefly examined.",
