Equatorial atmosphere is a place where nucleate powerful tropical cyclonic eddies. Typhoons that carry a large
amount of moisture can be a source of tidal planetary scale. The electron concentration in the ionosphere is also a
maximum near the equator (region of the equatorial anomaly). Therefore, this is the area most effective interaction
of the planetary perturbations of the atmosphere and ionosphere.
