The role of ducted whistlers in the precipitation loss and equilibrium flux of radiation belt electronsEvidence is presented for a close association betwen individual whistler ducts and conjugate ionospheric disturbances sensed by the perturbation of subionospheric VLF, LF, and MF signals. It is found that even the weakest whistlers can be associated with ionospheric disturbances in both hemispheres. A case study has shown that slow-onset and 'overshoot' perturbation signatures to be consistent with multiple ionospheric disturbances that are associated with individual components of multipath-ducted whistlers.
