Abstract: This paper presents independent multi-instrument observations that address the physical mechanisms of how ultralow-frequency (ULF) wave-associated electric fields initiate ionospheric density fluctuation and scintillation at the equator. Since the magnetic field at the equator is entirely embedded in a relatively high-collision and high-conductivity medium, the condition may not be possible for the geomagnetic field to fluctuate due to ULF wave activity. This implies that the fluctuating elec...
