The post-noon absorption observed simultaneously between the hemispherical stations was a spike-type with weak intensity (<1 dB) during the high solar wind dynamic pressure. The absorption spikes might be caused by precipitation of highrenergy electrons (30 - 300 keV) in the closed dayside magnetosphere. It should be noted that the precipitation region of the absorption spike associated with the steep pressure increase (~ 13 nPa) was localized and shifted equatorward.展开更多
