| Abstract: | On behalf of an URSI Working Group 3 initiated study (VIM), three ionospheric models, IRI, PL/PRISM and FLIP, are compared with electron density profiles derived from ionograms Millstone Hill. Four months of data in 1989/90 were analyzed. For most of the time, N(h) profiles were available every 15 minutes providing a good statistical database for the evaluation of the ionospheric models in terms of diurnal and seasonal variations. |
