In Section 4.2, Tsagouri et al. (2009) developed a new ionospheric
forecasting algorithm, called the Solar
Wind driven autoregression
model for Ionospheric short - term Forecast (SWIF).
This is achieved through the cooperation of an autoregression
forecasting algorithm, called Time Series AutoRegressive — TSAR (Koutroumbas et al. 2008), with the empirical Storm Time Ionospheric
Model — STIM (Tsagouri & Belehaki 2006, 2008) that formulates the ionospheric storm - time response based on solar
wind input, exploiting recent advances in ionospheric storm dynamics that correlate the ionospheric storm effects with solar
wind parameters (e.g., the magnitude of the IMF and its rate of change as well as the IMF's orientation in the north - south direction).
Empirical
models using solar
wind parameters and / or IMF as drivers, usually, are used for now - casting (specification of ionospheric state) or
forecasting 1 — 3 h ahead.
