Abstract

The possibility of magnetogravity wave (MGW) propagation in the equatorial ionosphere taking into account the finite conductivity is analyzed. The dispersion relation shows the existence of two propagating MGW modes in ionospheric layer F2: high-frequency (HF MGW) and low frequency (LF MGW). The dispersion relations for them are executed and the characteristic frequencies and propagation velocities are determined. In this part of research the spectral features of disturbances in components of environment displacement for HF MGW, generated by a mass source, is carried out. The results are applied to estimate the values of density, pressure and magnetic field spectral components of magnetogravity disturbances caused by horizontal meteor sweep. They may be useful in the analysis of ionospheric disturbances excited by high energy geophysical sources.
