| Abstract: | Lunar oscillation in the ionospheric absorption for the frequency 2•4 MHz at Kokubunji has been computed using the data for the period 1957-68. It has been found that the lunar tide in absorption at Kokubunji behaves in a way opposite to that of the tide at an equatorial station like Colombo. The phase of the tide during E-months shows a reversal compared to the other two seasons of the year. The amplitude of the tide increases with the increase of solar activity. The maximum amplitude of the lunar tide in absorption takes place at stations within 20ᵒ±5ᵒdip latitude. |
