Scientific paper

Huang et al. (private communication, 2004) have reported large increases, factors of 2-3, in the mid-latitude ionospheric electron density in the aftermath of a magnetic storm. The density increase was observed at two mid-latitude sites (Millstone Hill and Eglin), but was not seen at lower latitudes (Areceibo). Accompanying the increase was a decrease (of 800-1500 K) in the F-region electron temperature. We present simulations results from the NRL ionosphere models SAMI2 and SAMI3 of the response of the mid-latitude F-region ionosphere to an imposed electric field that simulates this magnetic storm. We obtain reasonable agreement with the observed density and temperature features despite a simple model of the storm electric field. Research supported by ONR.
