Scientific paper

We use the previous radio-occulation data and quasi-2D MHD model for the dayside of the planet to construct a global isodensity and plasma scale height distributions and large scale inhomogeneities in the Martian topside ionosphere. This semiempirical global electron density distribution is used for comparison of plasma scale heights and scale heights of the neutral atmosphere (Mars-GRAM - model). The result of such comparison can give some evidence of the horizontal magnetic field presence and its behavior over the dayside of the planet. The comparison of radio-occulation profiles and MHD model gives the estimation of horizontal fluxes participation in formation of peculiarities of the profiles during an increase of Solar Wind dynamic pressure.
