The diurnal variations of the height of the F2-layer peak at middle and high latitudes appear to be strongly influenced by vertical ionospheric drifts due to the global atmospheric wind system produced by neutral-atmosphere pressure gradients. The average value of the diffusion coefficient at the layer peak derived from the hmF2 variations on the assumption that they are entirely caused by drifts is 2·2 × 1010cm2sec-1, which is in good agreement with the appropriate theoretical value.
