Abstract : Solar Flares are solar transients which affect geospace in a number of ways. Effect of the enhanced radiation during these transients has been investigated in the present study. Satellite and Ground based ionospheric observations, alongwith solar X-ray emission, have been used for this investigation. The response of these enhanced radiations has high spatial dependence. A very good almost one to one response, in time, has been observed which depends on local time and position of the measurement station, in terms of zenith angle. This study has been compared with other studies of its nature and found that ionospheric measurements with better resolution can give better estimates of ionoziation and its relation with sudden enhancement in solar radiation. Such responses have been recorded and considered for the comparison, with respect to the strength of the transients, and development of a model for the same.
