abstract = "This study examines the variability of the ionospheric content
during the period around the 2015 Saint Patrick magnetic storm and
when equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are observed during the
quiet time over South America during two other events. It uses the
ionospheric scales index map based on the disturbance ionospheric
index (DIX). The results are compared to the traces of the
ionograms obtained at three different ionospheric stations
(Fortaleza, Campo Grande, and Cachoeira Paulista) in Brazil
acquired in the same period and at the same time rate. The index
is based on the TEC map developed at the Brazilian Studies and
Monitoring of Space Weather (Embrace/INPE). It covers the whole
South America (latitudes from 20°N to 60°S and longitudes from
90°W to 30°W) with 0.5° × 0.5° resolution cells (60 × 60 km2 ).
Among the results, the DIX map revealed some patches of Disturbed
and Weakly Disturbed ionospheric conditions during the
magnetically quiet time before the storm, which were associated
with range and frequency Spread\‐F over the same area as
observed in ionograms. Also, the information from the southern
portion of the dip equator showed a transition from occurrences of
Spread\‐F prior to sunrise to a condition favorable enough
to develop a F3 layer after sunrise.",
