An analysis is presented of the nonstationary restructuring of vertical profiles of the density and velocity of H(+) ions in the ionosphere during the filling and emptying (through upward flow) of plasma tubes, with allowance for the role of inertia in the filling of empty tubes. It is shown that differences in solutions obtained for midlatitude plasma tubes with and without allowance for inertia are substantial for time scales of less than 1 hour; meanwhile, the effect of inertia is negligible in closed tubes at scales of the order of several hours. It is concluded that the peculiarities of the filling of empty plasma tubes which have been disclosed in the present study may explain the fact that the position of the plasmapause does not coincide with the position of the light-ion trough in nonstationary conditions.
