These are reduced data in both digital and plotted form. Seventy-six storms are identified and data for 5 days, starting with storm commencement, are given for these storms. The data for each storm require 3 pages, with 2 graphs at the top of each page prepared from the data appearing on the lower portion of the page. The first page contains Total Electron Content (TEC) data normalized to a perpendicular column through the ionospheric point (intersection of the propagation path with the f2 max). The second page contains f2 peak density data from ground observations. The slab-thickness data on the third page are computed from data given on page 1 and page 2. All the graphs are of a parameter vs time, but the parameter for the second graph on each page is a variation of the parameter from its 7-day mean value. More complete data description and documentation appears with the data. The data are in Mendillo and Klobuchar, "An Atlas of the Mid-Latitude F-Region Response to Geomagnetic Storms."
