摘要:This study presents the modeling of ionospheric response to geomagnetic storms of September 9–14, 2005.We examine the performance of the Global Self-Consistent Model of Thermosphere, Ionosphere and Protonosphere (GSM TIP) and International Reference Ionosphere-2000 (IRI-2000), and compare the modeling predictions with the ionosonde and incoherent scatter radar observations over Yakutsk, Irkutsk, Millstone Hill and Arecibo stations.IRI-2000 predicted well all negative f o F 2 disturbances.In comparison with IRI-2000, the GSM TIP better reproduced the positive phase observed during the disturbed times.We discuss the possible reasons of the differences between the GSM TIP model calculations, IRI predictions, and the observations.
