We conducted statistical study of probabilities of manifestation of strong meteorological disturbances (tropical cyclones) in variations of ionospheric parameters in the zone remote from the disturbance source, analysing radiophysical measurement data over the period 2005-2011. The frequency analysis of 7-year data on maximum observed frequencies (MOF) of oblique sounding (OS) signals along Magadan - Irkutsk, Khabarovsk - Irkutsk and Norilsk - Irkutsk paths revealed time intervals with higher intensity of short-period oscillations interpreted as the manifestation of travelling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) whose sources were 1…5-hour internal gravity waves (IGWs). The analysis was conducted for equinoctial periods of all the years and also for summers in 2010 and 2011. There were 28 tropical cyclones (TC) when radiophysical measurements were made along OS paths in the Northwest Pacific Ocean, which was the nearest territory to the OS paths. To discriminate effectively between the disturbances when conducting analysis, we took account of accompanying helio-geomagnetic disturbances and meteorological conditions in the regions under examination. In summer months and especially in autumn ones, during active tropical cyclogenesis, we observed a considerable increase in the energy of wave disturbances in the paths under study with different ionospheric responses to propagation of wave disturbances from the same IGW sources. The spectra of MOF variations in OS signals for the spring months with no cyclone activity in the Northwest Pacific Ocean were considered as 'background' ones under quiet helio-geomagnetic conditions. The background spectra were compared with the disturbance amplitude spectra determined during the active phase of the tropical cyclogenesis in the summer and autumn. We think that the revealed differences in the energy of the short-period oscillations in different seasons may be associated with peculiarities of formation, development, and propagation of tropical cyclones in the time periods under study, and, as a consequence of these peculiarities, with various TC effects on the upper atmosphere
Keywords: upper and middle atmosphere, ionosphere, coupling of the atmospheric layers, wave disturbances, tropical cyclones
