Abstract
Total electron content data at Ootacamund (dip 6°N) during the second phase of the ATS-6 program are analysed for solar and lunar variations. Both the lunar semi-monthly and lunar semi-diurnal tides at Ootacamund are smaller in magnitude than at stations near the Appleton anomaly crest. The phases of the lunar oscillations however are almost the same as that at tropical latitudes. Thus the lunar tides in total electron content and in maximum F2-region electron density at the equatorial station are not in phase and present problems for the simple electrodynamic theory.
