Incoherent scatter radar measurements were carried out at Millstone Hill (43 N), Arecibo (18 N), and Sondrestrom (67 N) between January 14 and 17, 1986, under magnetically undisturbed geophysical conditions to provide a background for studies of magnetic storm effects. Mean temperatures and diurnal temperature variations obtained via Fourier decomposition of these data are compared with the predictions of the 1986 empirical mass spectrometer incoherent scatter model and with recent theoretical calculations, confirming the largely predictive capabilities of the magnetically undisturbed winter thermosphere models. However, there were some inconsistensies in the horizontal structure of diurnal temperature amplitudes between modeled and measured results.
