Abstract
The phase of very long radio waves reflected from the ionosphere is very-sensitive to the occurrence of solar flares. The course of the ionospheric disturbance can be followed in detail and a measure of the maximum disturbance given. A method is outlined which may lead to the identification of the radiation which disturbs the ionosphere. Continuous automatic records provide abundant data of great value to the study of solar-terrestrial relations.Keywords
