Пространственно-временные вариации концентрации электронов в ионосфере в минимуме и максимуме солнечной активности

Abstract

Results of experimental investigations of variation of electron concentration in ionosphere on Kharkiv incoherent scatter radar data obtained during the phases of the minimum (2006 – 2007) and the maximum (2012 – 2013) of the solar activity cycle are presented. Analysis and physical interpretation of spatial-temporal dependencies of the electron concentration variations were carried out. Modeling results of the diurnal variations of the electron concentration in the altitude range 190 – 790 km in the frame of CERIM IION regional model of ionosphere development are presented.
