  • Abstract
    We have compared the electron density height profiles calculated by the global numerical Upper Atmosphere Model with the empirical IRI-2007 and IRI-2012 model values. The comparison has been performed for two solar activity levels and different seasons. It is shown that the UAM results agree well at middle latitudes being closer to the IRI-2007 than to the IRI-2012 values.
