Physical Model of D-Region Ionosphere and Preliminary Comparison with IRI and Data of MF Radar at Kunming

Physical Model of D-Region Ionosphere and Preliminary Comparison with IRI and Data of MF Radar at Kunming

Based on the ion continuity equation solved under chemical equilibrium, a physical model of the D-region ionosphere (60–90 km) is established. The model involves 145 ion chemical reactions and includes 23 kinds of positive ions, 11 kinds of negative ions, and electrons. The simulation results show t...
