The Alaska earthquake, which occurred at 5:36 P.M. local time on Friday March 27, 1964 (0336, March 28, 1964 UT), initiated a large traveling ionospheric disturbance. This disturbance undoubtedly affected many different types of ionospheric sensors; however, the data reported here are limited to ionosondes operating at College, Alaska; Adak, Alaska; Palo Alto, California; and Maui, Hawaii. The ionosonde data show indications of the perturbation in two different forms. The form depends on the distance between the observing station and the epicenter of the earthquake.
Leonard et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
