abstract = "{The multisatellite observations were used to study the possible factors
leading to the development of the plasma density enhancements
during the August 2003 storm period. The plasma depletions and
enhancements (also referred as bubbles and blobs, respectively)
were observed by first satellite of the Republic of China around
345{\textdegree}E sector at different local time on 17 August,
before the midnight after the storm sudden commencement.
However, only the depletions were recorded on 18 August at the
same longitude sector and at nearly the same time as that on 17
August. The motions of the bubbles and blobs displayed different
characteristics on 17 August. From Challenging Mini-satellite
Payload, Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment, and total
electron content map, the equatorial ionization anomaly was
inhibited and displayed more asymmetric on 17 August and became
stronger on 18 August. A density enhancement near the northern
crest was recorded by Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment,
and similar enhancements were found in total electron content
map at low-latitude regions of both hemispheres on 17 August.
The results suggest that the meridional neutral wind is crucial
and plays an important role in the development of the plasma
blobs. And the variations of meridional neutral wind may be
linked with the large-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances
during the disturbed periods.}",
