Retrieval of thermospheric parameters from routine ionospheric observations: assessment of method’s performance at mid-latitudes daytime hours

Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2012
A new method has been developed to retrieve neutral temperature Tn and composition [O], [N2], [O2] from electron density profiles in the daytime mid-latitude F2-region under both quiet and disturbed conditions. A comparison with CHAMP neutral gas density

Ionospheric electron density response to solar flares as viewed by Digisondes [PDF]

Space Weather, 2014
Solar flares are explosive events on the Sun that release energetic particles, X-rays, EUV, and radio emissions that have an almost immediate impact on Earth's ionosphere-thermosphere (IT) system and/or on operational systems that are affected by IT conditions. To assess such impacts, it is a key that we know how the ionosphere is modified.

HF Radar Observations and Modeling of the Impact of the 8 April 2024 Total Solar Eclipse on the Ionosphere‐Thermosphere System

Geophysical Research Letters
The path of totality of the 8 April 2024 solar eclipse traversed the fields‐of‐view of four US SuperDARN radars. This rare scenario provided an excellent opportunity to monitor the large‐scale ionospheric response to the eclipse.

Global Effect of Long‐Lasting 07–12 October 2024 Geomagnetic Storms During the Transition From a Strong (G3) to a Severe (G4) on the Geomagnetic Field and Ionospheric Parameters Distribution

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the co‐evolution of geomagnetic field disturbances with ionospheric parameters and their characteristic latitudinal signatures by conducting a location and time‐dependent analysis of the 07–12 October 2024 events, to fill crucial gaps in understanding the coupled response of the magnetosphere‐ionosphere system. This has

Development and Cancellation of Long‐Duration Positive Ionospheric Storms: Both Changes of the F2‐Layer Peak Height and O/N2 Ratio Can Be Decisive

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract For decades, two competing hypotheses on the key drivers of mid‐latitude long‐duration positive ionospheric storms (LDPS) have been considered: (a) an increase of the F2‐layer peak height (hmF2) and (b) an increase in the atomic oxygen to molecular nitrogen density ratio (O/N2).

Validation of the IRI‐2020 Model Topside Ionosphere Options Through COSMIC‐1 and COSMIC‐2 Radio Occultation Profiles Collocated With Ionosonde Observations

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This study validates the four topside ionosphere model options included in the latest release of the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI‐2020) model: IRI‐2001, IRI‐2001cor, IRI‐NeQuick, and the default IRI‐COR2. To assess their ability to reproduce the topside profile while minimizing uncertainties associated with F2‐layer peak modeling ...

Performance Investigation of Four Ionospheric Models in Estimating hmF2 in High‐Latitude Regions

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract As a critical parameter characterizing the vertical structure of the ionosphere, the peak height of the F2 layer (hmF2) plays an essential role in frequency selection and signal propagation in high‐frequency (HF) communication systems. Accurate prediction of hmF2 is particularly important in high‐latitude regions.
