Abstract Dynamical changes in the Earth's neutral atmosphere not directly related to solar-activity variations are probably the largest single contributor to day-to-day ionospheric fluctuations. To develop dynamic models which can reproduce typical time varying events it is necessary to know both the morphological structure of these variations and their probabilities of occurrence. This paper describes a summary of preliminary findings concerning the data required for model development to reproduce the response of the ionospheric F-region to a gravity wave in the neutral atmosphere. The results presented provide a means of specifying foF2 on a local basis consistent with observations and with physical understanding of the structure of the F-region and the causes of its day-to-day variations.
