Abstract

Based on a previous study to select the best solar activity proxy for foF2 modelling, we expand the analysis to include 24 h time span, increase the spatial coverage by considering additional ionospheric stations, and update the analysis to 2021. Annual means of foF2 are analysed for 12 selected stations from Europe, Asia and Oceania, with high-quality data covering the period 1978–2021 in most of the cases, including two of the three European stations of the previous study. The same four solar proxies were used: F10.7, F30, MgII and HeII, which, based on the high linear correlation between each of them and foF2, serve to model this ionospheric parameter through a linear regression. The results of our comparative analysis, extended to more stations, all the hours and updated time series, agree with previous works, with MgII and F30 being the best solar proxies for foF2 modelling, while HeII is found to be the least effective for this purpose. The importance of the solar proxy selection to model foF2 for filtering purposes to later estimate long-term trends is highlighted considering that different solar proxies applied might result in somewhat different foF2 long-term trend values.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
