Short summary
A localized total electron content enhancement (LTE) was observed as a product of the geomagnetic storm that happened on 8 September 2017. This result was unexpected because it was located south of the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA). The origin of the enhancement of the TEC in the EIA is very likely due to the super-fountain effect. On the other hand, the LTE is suggested to be produced by the contribution of the super-fountain effect along with traveling ionospheric disturbances.
