Scientific paper

Model studies performed on ionosonde measurements of N(m)F(2) and estimates of h(m)F(2) for a disturbed period with geomagnetic activity varied from low to moderately high are reported. A three-dimensional time-dependent model of earth's ionosphere employing the vertical plasma drift as a free parameter is used for calculating N(m)F(2) and h(m)F(2). It is concluded that despite knowledge of h(m)F(2), interpretation of the vertical plasma drift as meridional neutral winds is compromised by a lack of knowledge of the plasmasphere-ionosphere exchange flux following disturbed days.
