Estimates of the electric fields in the lower ionosphere above the magnetic equatorThe electric fields at the solar activity minimum on the magnetic equator are evaluated based on data from rocket studies of the vertical profiles of the ionospheric-current magnetic fields and electron concentration. The electric field strength is 1-4 X 100 CGSM units. In addition, the electric field has altitude and time distributions. Its maximum is observed at a height of 110 km, and at 90 and 140 km, it is smaller by a factor of 3-4 than at the 110-km height. The maximum values are registered around noon.
