Multiple‐frequency (5‐50 Mc/S) radio wave absorption data taken during a polar‐cap event is used to derive an electron density profile for the lower ionosphere. By comparing this profile with an ionization rate profile calculated using measured particle flux, the effective recombination coefficient is obtained for the 50‐90 km height region.
