Development and Validation of Precipitation Enhanced Densities for the Empirical Canadian High Arctic Ionospheric Model by C. Watson, D. R. Themens, P. T. Jayachandran

“…Abstract The Empirical Canadian High Artic Ionospheric Model (E‐CHAIM) provides the four‐dimensional ionosphere electron density at northern high latitudes (>50° geomagnetic latitude). Despite its emergence as the most reliable model for high‐latitude ionosphere density, there remain significant deficiencies in E‐CHAIM's representation of the lower ionosphere (below ∼200 km) due to a sparsity of reliable measurements at these altitudes, particularly during energetic particle precipitation events. …”
