Abstract This study employs the Horizontal Wind model 2014 to calculate the intensity of the Vertical ion convergence (VIC) to examine the role of neutral wind shear in the global distribution of the Es occurrence rate. The global S4 observations from the FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC GPS Occultation Experiment (GOX) are used to derive global information on the Es occurrence. Both the simulation and observation suggest that the Es highly occurs in the mid-latitude regions of the summer hemisphere.
