Abstract The longitude effect upon foF2 over the dip equator is anticorrelated with the total electrojet current, and also to some extent with the build-up of the northern and southern crests. The shape of the topside profile varies drastically with the longitudinal variations of foF2. It is concluded that the vertical electrodynamic drift depends seriously on the longitude and is at the origin of the observed changes.
