Experience with proposed improvements of the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI)
Abstract
Improvements of the international reference ionosphere (r) are proposed. The following topics are discussed: electron density profile (D and E region, bottomside F region, topside, variability); plasma temperatures (electron temperature, ion and electron temperatures variability); ionospheric structure (ionic composition, planetary distribution, present and future (IRI)).
