Scientific paper

We analyze Jicamarca ionograms to study the quiet-condition variations in the peak electron density (NmF2), its height (hmF2), and F2-layer thickness parameter (B0) of the equatorial F2 layer during solar minimum. The sunrise peak is found in hmF2 and B0 for all months. During daytime and nighttime, the variation in the hmF2 value is mainly responsible for that in NmF2 and B0. The sunset peaks of hmF2 and B0 exist in the equinoctial months, but not in the winter months. Moreover, the observed values of hmF2, NmF2, and B0 are generally similar to the modeled values of IRI-2001.
