Abstract:In a recent paper, Sears et al. [1981] modeled the data set from the November 12, 1966, total solar eclipse campaign conducted in Casino, Brazil, by using a D region chemical code. One of the main conclusions from their analysis was that for adequate modeling of the D region electron density it was necessary to include in the chemical code an ionization source function arising from the precipitation of inner radiation belt energetic electrons into the lower ionosphere over the south 'Atlantic anomaly. They ca… Show more
