Abstract

Measurements of atmospheric electric potential gradient, conductivity of both polarities and space charge at the ground surface at Pune during the partial solar eclipse of 18 March 1988 have been made. In spite of no appreciable change in atmospheric temperature at the ground surface, all the atmospheric electric parameters showed remarkable changes during the period of eclipse. Results do not support any vertical transport of charge, either by conduction or by convection, near to the ground surface.
