  • Abstract
    A lithosphere-ionosphere interaction model is put forward, involving atmospheric vertical conduction electric currents, the variations of which can change the electric potential of the lower ionosphere. The ionospheric parameter variations have been estimated, compared with the gathered data, and both quantitative and qualitative agreement found
