Аннотация: Powerful non-stationary processes on the Sun lead to solar storms, and on Earth to geospace storms. Ionospheric storms are an integral part of geospace storms, they are extreme manifestations of ionospheric weather. Its variations have a significant impact on the life of a civilization. It has been established that the manifestations of storms significantly depend not only on the characteristics of solar and geospace storms, but also on the season, time of day, magnetic and geographical coordinates, etc. All this determines the relevance of studying each new ionospheric storm, and even more so a unique event. The purpose of this work is to study the features of the global manifestation of a unique geospace storm on May 10—13, 2024 in the F-region of the ionosphere. The main features of the global manifestation of a unique geospace storm on May 10—13, 2024 in the F-region of the ionosphere have been studied. The largest negative disturbances were observed on May 11, 2024, during the recovery phase of the geomagnetic storm. At most stations, the storm was strong or severe during the daytime. At night, manifestations of a strong, severe, and extreme storm were mainly observed. The storm of May 13, 2024 was less intense compared to the storm of May 11, 2024. During the daytime, it was minor and moderate, and at night, it was mainly strong and even very strong. Sometimes negative and positive ionospheric storms replaced each other. Positive ionospheric storms were weaker. The duration of the blackout tended to decrease with decreasing geographical latitude of the station. |
