Abstract

AbstractThe paper deals with the problem of the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) modelling and its representation in the global dynamical models of Earth’s ionosphere and thermosphere. A new version of the coupled thermosphere-ionosphere global dynamical model which reproduce the equatorial anomaly considerably well is presented. Key processes responsible for the EIA formation are outlined and their representation in the model is indicated. It was shown that the developed coupled thermosphere-ionosphere model with additional accounting of vertical electromagnetic drift at the equator realistically represents the EIA characteristics.
