Short summary
An unusual geomagnetic storm effect on the ionosphere in the form of localized enhancement of total electron content southward of South Africa is investigated using data from different ionosphere sounding facilities. Global ionospheric maps allow us to get the occurrence rate of such irregularities over the period of 2002–2016 and to see its correlation with solar cycle. The events we detected occur during geomagnetic storms, but not every geomagnetic storm produces such an effect.
