摘　　要：This paper deals with TEC variability during fluctuating geomagnetic events (FE) during solar cycle 24 at Koudougou station (lat: 12^o15'N;Geo long: -2^o20'E). The study was done by comparing TEC variations during FE days with those of quiet days (QA). Comparison was made taking into account solar phases’ and seasons’ influences. FE’s and QA’s TEC curves are characterized by dome profiles. All graphs show two troughs, one in the morning (0500 LT) and the second in the evening (around 2000 LT) and a peak around 1400 LT during all solar phases and winter months and around 1500 LT for the remaining seasons. Both troughs are caused by the decrease of the photo ionization and an increase of the recombination phenomena, as well for FE as for QA periods. FE cause positive storms during all solar phases as well as during seasons and some negative storms during spring and summer months and minimum and maximum solar phases.This paper deals with TEC variability during fluctuating geomagnetic events (FE) during solar cycle 24 at Koudougou station (lat: 12^o15'N;Geo long: -2^o20'E).
