The propagation of F-region equatorial irregularities along a common magnetic flux tube or along nearly common flux tubes is investigated using instruments deployed at Neiva, Columbia and at Cerro Tololo, Chile. The instruments deployed are all-sky imaging systems using 777.4 nm, 620.0 nm, and 557.7 nm narrow-band filters, and 50-Hz high sampling rate "ScintMon" GPS receivers. These instruments are complemented by the Jicamarca Peru ISR, other GPS receivers in South America, and C/NOFS satellite measurements to determine how local irregularity and scintillation data can be reconciled with physics of plasma transport along an entire magnetic flux tube.

使用部署在哥伦比亚的Neiva和智利的Cerro Tololo的仪器，研究了F区赤道不规则性沿着一个共同的磁通量管或沿着几乎共同的磁通量管的传播。 所部署的仪器是使用777.4纳米、620.0纳米和557.7纳米窄带滤波器的全天空成像系统，以及50赫兹高采样率“ScintMon”全球定位系统接收器。 这些仪器得到Jicamarca秘鲁卫星、南美洲其他全球定位系统接收器和C/NOFS卫星测量的补充，以确定如何使局部不规则性和闪烁数据与沿整个磁通量管沿着的等离子体传输物理学相一致。
