Abstract

The results of ionosphere sounding in Yakutsk during the September 16, 2004, earthquake that occurred in east Yakutia are presented. Variations in the critical frequency and height of F 2-layer and the radio reflection arrival angles illustrating the dynamics of the ionospheric disturbance are shown.
