The ionosonde at Chumphon in Thailand was used to estimate the PRE strength. Ten GPS receivers in Southeast Asia, ranging from magnetic latitude (ML) of 4.4°S to 21.6°S, were used to investigate the latitudinal variation of EPB occurrence rate. In the case of strong PRE, the EPB occurrence rates decrease from 38.9% to 34.9% at ML of 4.4°S-7.2°S. Continuously, the occurrence rate increases and reaches the peak (44%) at ML of 9.3°S; afterward, the occurrence rate rapidly decreases and reaches below 5% at ML of 21.6°S. In the case of weak PRE, the occurrence rate decreases from 21.8% at ML of 4.4°S, seems constant (15.3%-16%) at ML of 8.2°S-12.1°S, and reaches less than 5% at ML of 16.1°S. Generally, the EPB occurrence rate and its latitudinal extension in case of strong PRE are higher than that in case of weak PRE. Interestingly, we found that the latitudinal occurrence rate peak of the EPB in case of strong is farther than that in case of weak PRE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Equatorial plasma bubble,GPS receivers,Ionospheric plasmas,Latitudinal variation,Magnetic latitude,Rate increase,Southeast Asia,Thailand[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1523/1/012024[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
