abstract = "OI 630.0 nm airglow observations, from a new observatory at Bom
Jesus de Lapa, were used to study the interaction between EPBs
(Equatorial Plasma Bubbles) and the MSTID (Medium-Scale Traveling
Ionospheric Disturbance) over the Northeast region in Brazil. On
the night of September 16 to 17, 2020, an EPB was observed
propagating eastward, in an apparent fossil stage, until it
interacted with a dark band electrified MSTID (eMSTID). After the
interaction, four EPBs merged, followed by an abrupt southward
development and bifurcations. Analysis of the data suggests that
an eastward polarization electric field, induced by the dark band
eMSTID, forced the EPB into an upward drift, growing latitudinally
along the magnetic field lines and then bifurcating.",
