Ionosphere Models and Their Correction Using Operational Data from the Ionospheric Observation Network

摘要

A possibility of correcting ionosphere climate models based on data from a single observation station equipped with the vertical radio sounding ionosonde is studied to monitor the Earth plasma shell in the vicinity of this measuring instrument. The SIMP-STANDARD and IRI models are used for the study. The probabilities of the fact that relative deviations of corrected models are below 10 are taken as criteria of the efficiency of ionosphere climate model correction. The size of the areas around each ionosonde of the state ionospheric network is determined, where an increase in the quality of ionospheric monitoring is possible by correcting the ionosphere climate model based on the data of this particular ionosonde.
