SUMMARY OF THE EVENT: The Total Electron Cntent (TEC) in the ionosphere was disturbed over Europe during the day and the evening of the 01/11/2012. This might be due to an increase in the solar wind density which was observed by ACE and SOHO/CELIAS satellites the 31/10/2012. The origin of the event is unclear but is possible related to a weak eruption and CME of last Saturday afternoon (Oct 27). (source :www.sidc.be).

Figure 1 shows the time evolution of the Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) (in red) extracted from the near-real time VTEC maps at 3 different latitudes (Figure 2): a) Northern part (top), b) Brussels (middle) and c) Southern part (bottom). Also shown, the model based on the median from the 15 previous days (in grey). About this event, see also:
