Solar Eclipse and Its Effects on Ionosphere

This work contributes immensely to current understanding of solar eclipses most especially total solar eclipses it origin and reveal a quite difference ionospheric behavior at different period of solar X-ray flare classes production during total eclipse in middle latitude ionosonde station situated along the path of totality of eclipse. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun thereby totally or partially obscuring Earth''s view of the Sun. This configuration can only occur during a new moon when the Sun and Moon are aligned as seen from the Earth. This phenomena and on ionosphere F2 are reveals.
