Modeling the Topside Ionosphere Effective Scale Height through In Situ Electron Density Observations by Low-Earth-Orbit Satellites

In this work, we aim to characterize the effective scale height at the ionosphere F2-layer peak (<i>H</i><sub>0</sub>) by using in situ electron density (<i>N</i><sub>e</sub>) observations by Langmuir Probes (LPs) onboard the China Seismo-Electromagnet...
