国际参考电离层模型IRI(the international reference ionosphere model)是利用全球电离层测站以及卫星观测数据建立的电离层经验模型,并广泛用于电离层研究领域.本文选用2014年地磁暴平静期的IRI-2016模式和电离层垂测仪的数据,对电离层F2层峰值电子密度NmF2和峰值高度HmF2两个物理量,通过IRI模型最新版本(IRI-2016)在地磁环境平静期的误差精度进行评估.根据不同磁倾角范围分别选择5个台站(Juliusruh(54°N,13°E)磁倾角:68.54°,Okinawa(26°N,128°E)磁倾角:37.26°,Jicamarca(12°S,77°W)磁倾角:-0.26°,Port_Stanley(52°S,58°W)磁倾角:-51.20°,Hermanus(34°S,19°E)磁倾角:-64.24°)进行NmF2和HmF2参数对比分析.5个台站中Port_Stanley站的NmF2相关性最差(相关系数0.68),Okinawa站HmF2相关性最差(相关系数0.52),Juliusruh站两个参数的相关性最高(相关系数0.87).以Juliusruh站为例进行白昼、夜晚以及不同季节的分析,可以看出白昼误差明显低于夜晚,相较于分季(春或秋)和冬季,IRI模型在夏季预测效果最好.5个台站的研究结果表明,IRI模型与垂测仪数据具备一致性,IRI模型的值高于实测数据值
