What does the 304A solar parameter measure?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. UV emissions at 304 angstroms, correlated to the solar flux index
The 304A parameter measures ultraviolet emissions at 304 angstroms, which correlates with the solar flux index. That UV helps ionize the F region.
Tip: 304 angstroms = UV, tracks solar flux.
