Abstract

Abstract

Acomparison is made between the ionospheric electron content measured at Xian in 1978-1979 and that calculated from International Reference Ionosphere IRI-79. It is shown that the electron content calculated from IRI-79 in spring is much lower and this could be due to the too low electron density of the IRImodel above the F₂ peak level.
