abstract = "Covering the period from 22 September through 4 October 1986, the
SUNDIAL-86 Solar-Minimum Equinoctial Campaign studied the behavior
of the global-scale ionosphere. The period covered the most quiet
(Q1) and second most disturbed (D2) days of the entire month of
September, with the disturbed conditions triggered by a high-speed
solar wind stream. Ionospheric responses were monitored by the
SUNDIAL network of nearly 70 stations distributed approximately in
three longitudinal domains ; and global maps of f0 F2 results were
compared with the << predictions >> of the International Reference
Ionosphere modified to include an empirical specification of
auroral oval boundaries and associated high-latitude morphological
domains. Comparisons that included regions in the polar cap,
diffuse auroral oval, mid-latitude trough, equatorial anomaly and
the sunrise/sunset terminator showed good agreement between the
hourly 8-day-averaged ionospheric observations and the model. The
inclusion of an auroral oval and the good agreement between model
contours of f0F2 and SUNDIAL observations adds to the quality and
applicability of the IRI and builds a foundation for the
development of an adaptive time-dependent empirical model to
describe global-scale ionospheric responses to storm dynamics.",
