摘要：In our previous study (Moon et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.3938/jkps.77.1265), we developed a long short-term memory (LSTM) deep-learning model for geomagnetic quiet days (LSTM-quiet) to perform effective long-term predictions for the regional ionosphere. However, their model could not predict geomagnetic storm days effectively at all. This study developed an LSTM model suitable for geomagnetic storms using the new training data set and redesigning input parameters and hyper-parameters. We collected 131 days of geomagnetic storm cases from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2019, provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency's Kakioka Magnetic Observatory, and obtained the interplanetary magnetic field Bz, Dst, Kp, and AE indices related to the geomagnetic storm corresponding to each storm date from the OMNI database. These indices and F2 parameters (foF2 and hmF2) of Jeju ionosonde (33.43°N, 126.30°E) were used as input parameters for the LSTM model. To test and verify the predictive performance and the usability of the LSTM model for geomagnetic storms developed in this manner, we created and diagnosed the 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, and 24-h predictive LSTM models. According to the results of this study, the LSTM storm model for 24-h developed in this study achieved a predictive performance during the three geomagnetic storms about 32% (10%), 34% (17%), and 37% (5%) better in root mean square error of foF2 (hmF2) than the LSTM quiet model (Moon et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.3938/jkps.77.1265), SAMI2, and IRI-2016 models. We propose that the short-term predictions of less than 3 h are sufficiently competitive than other traditional ionospheric models. Thus, this study suggests that our model can be used for short-term prediction and monitoring of the regional mid-latitude ionosphere.
