- Abstract
The reaction of the lower ionosphere to the solar proton events that occurred in 2011-2012 is studied in this paper based on the results of measurements of the propagation velocity and the E / H ratio of the low-frequency electromagnetic pulses (atmospherics) in the ELF range at the high-latitude observatories Lovozero and Barentsburg. With numerical modeling methods, it is shown that horizontal local irregularities of the lower ionosphere conductivity profile could be a cause of the splashes in the E / H ratio observed in the experiment during the solar proton event of March 7, 2012, which was a unique event in both the proton flux value and energy.
