Scientific paper

All-sky camera and GPS measurements were used to investigate the thermosphere and ionosphere during the strong geomagnetic storm period of the 28-31 October 2003. Enhancement in 630.0 nm emission was observed in the northern sky from all-sky images taken at Mt. Bohyun (36.2° N, 128.9° E, geomagnetic latitude = 29°), Korea at 17:48-18:58 UT on 29 October during the main phase of the geomagnetic storm. We show the vertical variation of electron density between 28 and 31 October 2003. The vertical profiles of electron distribution have been examined by the computerized tomographic method using Algebraic Reconstruction Technique (ART). The slant total electron contents (STEC) for ionospheric tomography were measured at the regional GPS reference network of the nine stations that have been operated by Korea Astronomy & Space Science Institute (KASI). The results of ionospheric tomography are compared with Ionosonde measurements and IRI-2001 model. The possible cause of enhancement in 630.0 nm emission and the variation of electron density during the period of the geomagnetic storm will be discussed.
