IRI the International Standard for the Ionosphere (2003, result): “The topside electron density, in particular, has been shown to be overestimated by IRI in comparisons with C/NOFS, CHAMP, and GRACE satellite measurements (Lühr and Xiong, 2010; Bilitza et al., 2012).”
Causes of low thermospheric density during the 2007–2009 solar minimum (2011, result): “Luhr and Xiong [2010] confirmed these ionospheric results using data from the CHAMP and GRACE satellites, and Chen et al. [2011] found a significant decrease in ionosonde measurements of peak ionospheric densities during the cycle 23/24 minimum, compared to previous solar minimum periods.”
Does the F10.7 index correctly describe solar EUV flux during the deep solar minimum of 2007-2009? (2011, background): “In fact, some works [e.g., Bruinsma and Forbes, 2010; Coley et al., 2010; Lühr and Xiong, 2010]”
The International Reference Ionosphere 2012 – a model of international collaboration (2014, background): “The minimum was lower and more extended than earlier minima and as a result IRI, being built with the data from earlier minima, overestimated the plasma densities during the minimum period (Lühr & Xiong 2010).”
