Abstract

The sunrise effect in the F region of the ionosphere over Kodaikanal has been studied. It is found that the effect occurs about an hour after the moment of sunrise for visible rays in the layer and a few minutes before ground sunrise, This result is compared with those obtained at other places. The delay in the occurrence of the sunrise effect is believed to be due to the absorption of the solar ionizing radiation by the ionosperic layers lying to the east of tile observing station.
