Abstract. According to the sounding rocket experiment conducted at Hainan ionospheric observatory (19.5° N, 109.1° E), a valley between the E layer and F layer in the ionospheric electron density profile is observed and presented. The sounding rocket was launched in the morning (06:15 LT) on 7 May 2011, and the observed electron density profile outside the valley agrees with the simultaneous observation by the DPS-4 digisonde at the same station. The width of the observed valley was about 42 km, the depth almost 50%, and the altitude of the electron density minimum 123.5 km. This is the first observation of the E–F valley in the low-latitude region in the East Asian sector. The results are also compared with models, and the physical mechanism of the observed valley is discussed in this paper.

Abstract. In this paper a method for real-time updating of ionospheric electron density profile, N(h), over Europe using an ionospheric model and real-time measurements at ionosonde locations is presented. The N(h) profile update over European area has been simulated with the IRI-2000 ionospheric model and real-time N(h) profiles obtained from the EU COST271 Action Space Weather Database. Preliminary findings are shown for the geomagnetically quiet day on 4 May 2003 and disturbed day on 24 May 2002. Results are discussed in the context of real-time N(h) profile updating capabilities and effectiveness.
