Abstract
In this paper, we studied the seasonal variations of the high-frequency part of the F 2 peak density variability caused by the traveling ionospheric disturbances associated with propagation of internal gravity waves from the lower and middle atmosphere. As a variability characteristic we used the coefficient of daytime variations in the F 2 peak electron density. We identified periods of middle-scale wave-like motions in the stratosphere between November and February 2008–2010 based on the ECMWF ERA-Interim reanalysis data. A noticeable increase in the internal gravity wave activity was found at the heights of F 2 layer during the periods of stratospheric wave activity over analyzed regions.
