Blobs and irregularities in the auroral ionosphere

Journal of Atmospheric and Terrestrial Physics, 1996
Abstract The EISCAT BLOB experiment has been designed to study structuring of the plasma in the auroral ionosphere on scales of tens of kilometres transverse to the magnetic field. Results are presented from the initial observations that show three different types of field-aligned irregularities occurring within a time interval of about two hours ...

Lower ionospheric irregularities

1967
This thesis is a study of the structure of that part of the ionosphere lying between 60 and 120 km. In the usual terminology the ionized parts of the atmosphere in this altitude range are called the ionospheric D and E regions, the boundary between them occurring at a height of 90 km.

Evidence of elongated irregularities in the ionosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1959
Radio observations of backscatter from ionospheric irregularities under both auroral and nonauroral conditions indicate the presence of small-scale irregularities, elongated along the earth's magnetic field. These elongated irregularities have been found at heights from 80 to 300 km.

Irregularity motions in the polar ionosphere

Radio Science, 1973
The frequency spectrum of a CW HF radio signal transmitted from an aircraft and propagated over a 1‐hop path inside the polar cap was recorded for about 50 nighttime hr during August 1967. Two different general types of disturbance were observed in these records: (a) a diffuse spectral broadening which was always present to some extent, even under ...

The occurrence of large ionospheric irregularities

Journal of Atmospheric and Terrestrial Physics, 1968
Abstract Extended observations of large-scale ionospheric irregularities were made during 1963–1964 using a radio interferometer on a baseline of 10 km. The irregularities appear to be similar to those detected by the Faraday fading of satellite transmissions. A pronounced seasonal variation in the occurrence of the irregularities was observed having

Ionospheric Irregularities and Waves

2018
Some of the fundamental scientific questions are raised, mainly focusing on the causes of mid-latitude ionospheric irregularities and waves, the upward coupling of energy in the M-I-A system, and the thermal structure. A definition is provided for irregular behaviour with appropriate examples of LSTIDs and MSTIDs in the European mid-latitude ionosphere.

The elongation of irregularities in the equatorial ionosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1963
A correlation analysis of spaced aerial fading measurements for medium-frequency radio waves scattered from the D and E regions at a location near the magnetic equator is reported. The results show that there is a slight tendency towards field-aligned elongation of the diffraction pattern on the ground for echoes from 80 and 90 km and considerable ...

A Study of the Horizontal Irregularities of the Ionosphere

Proceedings of the Physical Society. Section B, 1950
The theory of diffraction by a random screen developed by Booker, Ratcliffe and Shinn is presented in a convenient form for practical application in ionospheric experiments. It is shown that measurements of the correlation of the fading of the reflected wave observed at spaced receiving points can be used to find the extent of the angular spreading of ...

Ionospheric irregularities detected by GEONET

2020
<p>Ionospheric irregularities disrupt the propagation of radio waves in the frequency range below a few GHz, a band used by navigation and communication systems such as Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Detailed understanding of the irregularity characteristics is helpful to estimate potential degradation of the ...
