Abstract
⺠We present a statistical study of the F3 layer characteristics using IK-19 database. ⺠The F3 layer has a maximum height near the geomagnetic equator. ⺠Three peaks in F3 layer occurrence probability (P) appear in diurnal variations. ⺠The F3 layer occurs most frequently in winter and least frequently in the equinoxes. ⺠The longitudinal variations in P depend on variations in the vertical plasma drift.
