| Abstract | This is an interesting and well-designed study of 27-day solar UV-induced variations of “standard phase height” (SPH) measurements in the ionospheric D region. While the observed inverse correlation of SPH with 27-day variations of solar EUV flux and the agreement of derived sensitivities with those obtained on the 11-year time scale are consistent with a purely photochemical mechanism (enhanced photo-ionisation of NO leading to lower effective reflection heights), a number of characteristics of the response are not consistent with such a mechanism. This leads the authors to further analyses identifying “non-trivial dynamical effects” and “clear evidence that planetary waves are associated with quasi 27-day periods”. After revisions in response to comments by the other two reviewers and by Jan Lastovicka as well as my comments, publication is recommended in ACP. |
