Sporadic E (Es) layer occurrence rates derived from GPS radio occultation measurements during the Geminid meteor showers 2006-2010 are compared with meteor rates obtained with the Collm VHF meteor radar. In most years, Es rates increase after the shower, with a short delay of few days. This indicates a possible link between meteor influx and the production of metallic ions that may form Es. However, the correlation between Es rates and meteor flux varies from year to year, indicating that more processes significantly influence Es occurrence also during meteor showers.
