Abstract
In the paper we study the ionosphere response to the March 2015 severe geomagnetic storm according to Eurasian high-middle latitude ionosonde chain. On the basis of the ionosonde chain data we have restored the time/ longitude dynamics of the high-middle latitude ionosphere over the Eurasian continent. The data showed thatduring the main storm phase that developed in the night time Siberian sector, a disturbed thermosphere region was created. This region moved westward with 50-70 m/s velocity and which was registered two-three days after the storm in the Eastern and Western Europe. Characteristics of the geomagnetic field variations showed that three active zones occurred during the storm.
