Abstract
The results of an experiment on synchronous recording of geomagnetic pulsat ions and variations in the Doppler frequency shift (DFS) at Norilsk station (geomagnetic coordinates lambda = 64.2 degrees, Phi = 160.4 degrees, L = 5 .3) in February-March 1995-1996 are analyzed. A digital ionosonde with oper ating frequencies in the range 1-20 MHz allowed us to receive radio signals reflected from the ionospheric E-s and F2 layers. The registration of geom agnetic pulsations was carried out with an induction magnetometer in the fr equency range 0.2-0.005 Hz. Seven fragments of the DFS variations were anal yzed during the appearance of the Pi2 pulsations, and two fragments were an alyzed during the period of Pc5-oscillation observation. Regular Pc5 pulsat ions with frequencies of 5-15 mHz were accompanied by synchronous variation s in the DFS with a high degree of correlation. Almost no correlation has b een observed during the observation of Pi2 pulsations, although the main fr equencies in the spectra of geomagnetic pulsations and variations in the DF S coincide.
