Title: | The F1 ledge: density, height and slope | Issue Date: | Aug-1996 | Series/Report no.: | 4/39 (1996) | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/2122/1715 | Keywords: | Ionosphere electron density profile ionospheric modeling |
Subject Classification: | 01. Atmosphere::01.02. Ionosphere::01.02.99. General or miscellaneous | Abstract: | Diurnal variations of the F1 region ionization at 170 km altitude and the slope ?170 = dN/dh at this height are analyzed for mid-latitude and equatorial stations: Millstone Hill, Ramey, Puerto Madryn and Jicamarca. Both the density N(t) and the slope ?(t)at 170 km show well defined diurnal variations with day-to-day variabilities of less than 10%. The heights of the F1 ledge, hmF1, are spread over ± 20 km and are therefore of limited value for modeling purposes. |
