Abstract

Electron temperature measured within the scope of the ACTIVE Project was analyzed for range of ±30 invariant latitude. Apogee (2500 km) and perigee (500 km) electron temperature data of December 1989 and March 1990 are in general agreement with the IRI. In morning hours there appears in high altitudes a longitude effect that is due to the variable illumination of the zone of main electron production. Geomagnetic activity causes an increase of electron temperature near 500 km, a decrease near 2500 km.
