Keywords:ionosphere, cooling effect

We investigated the influence of increasing CO2 on the ionosphere by conducting two simulations with the atmosphere-ionospheric model of GAIA. This model indicated that trends of F2 peak (NmF2 and HmF2) are negative in most locations under the CO2 cooling effect. The global averaged magnitude of NmF2 negative effect is about -0.7%, but a number of positive locations cannot negligible. Trends of NmF2 are seasonally asymmetry; winter hemisphere tend to have positive trends while summer hemisphere tend to have negative trends during 12LT and 0LT. The trends of HmF2 are also negative in many locations, which global averaged magnitude is about -0.7km. Trends of HmF2 have positive only near geomagnetic dip equator.
