An ionospheric storm is a disturbance in the ionosphere, which is a region of Earth's upper atmosphere (approximately 30 miles to 600 miles above the Earth) where ionization occurs due to solar radiation. These storms are often associated with geomagnetic storms, which are caused by increased solar activity, such as solar flares or coronal mass ejections (CMEs). During an ionospheric storm, the levels of ionization in the ionosphere can increase or decrease dramatically.
